snow has gotten a lot heavier now. Now, if could only cancel this afternoon's meetings. I don't think an inch or two will make too much diff in ski-ability . I will get a sail and get out first thing Friday.

Holy Wind!
Haha - I think it was Billski that was talking about winds...I'm on the western side of the Greens and where already starting to get down-sloping wind gusts off the mountains. Check out the Mountain forecast from my website here - Check out Jay Peak's forecast winds for later this afternoon!

I tried using Google Translate, but it didnt help me with this.

I'm more worried about winds this weekend, as in, are they going to make skiing un-fun? There were some calling for 30+mph for N.VT as of yesterday (havent looked today).

Stratton is reporting 6 inches already!
And Jay Peak is still claiming, "Forecasters calling for a minimum of a foot by Saturday am-possibility of more is a probability", though I'm wondering if perhaps they're not being a bit optimistic? Other than the guy the Weathering Heights guy they use for their webpage, I cant find 1 foot+ predictions for Jay (perhaps I'm just missing them).

Are you up north already billski? Are your legs going to be able to take more than an hour in fresh snow?

Rode burke all day. 6 inches at least throughout the day. Rode many.glades and unmarked. Some sketchiness but overall a mini POW day. Real fun.

Rain is a 4-letter word. Hopefully it stays cold enough.
Yay, love to hear the 1st-hand reports.

An update from the single chair guy, he's still extremely optimistic this could be a decently big one in the C.VT when all's-said-and-done.

Though the Weathering Heights guy is backing off his totals for N.VT, saying C.VT and S.VT will pick up more.

Hard to say what Gunstock got today with the way the wind was whipping. 5-6" I'd guess with some very nice drifting on Redhat and Cannonball. Not a deep day by any means, but certainly a powder day and a lot of fun.

6 to 8 inches at Okemo today. Horribly windy at the top, but once you got out of the wind, some terrific skiing. Especially since it was pretty empty.
