That's really the exception, not the rule. My experience suggests that they try to get as much as possible and probably get to about 60-80%. The steeper stuff is usually not ready. Fuggitabout the woods, which I usually do until mid-Jan depend on the storms.
Winn has a better NVT forecast on snowforecast.com than he lets onto here:
Friday - Snow Potential
An additional coating to a few inches possible (generally 1-4")
sunday A coating to an inch possible overnight
And it will stay below freezing for the duration.

Look at it this way, it's not even Winter yet.
Am I right?
Damn right I'm right.
But yeah, this blows.

If you look at these "bad" winters, you'll see that in all cases, things get rocking after xmas, for the most part.

What are you on? It is a rare exception that any major ski area is close to 100% by the winter break and Christmas. The rain has effected your memory, me thinks....

It easily exceeded 3/4 inch of rain here(I was going to say the customary "nair", but is Ullr even listening this month? - no. He's on a beach in Playa Del Carmen slamming dos equis and slurring out "stay thirsty my friends" to every euro trash hoochie that walks by looking for an open lounge chair with a parasol). With temps in the upper 50's I was expecting to hear thunder at some point.

I'll ski it if they let me, and pretend the conditions are awesome too!
Until I look at the bottoms of my new skis! (but I just won't look)
