I might go to Mountainsnow tomorrow wet snow I be okay with ic I don't like.
Go to Mt. Snow. From what I hear, the bad weather comes in tomorrow/sat night. NH has Ice Storm warnings on their variable message boards on the highway tonight from the top of the state to the bottom. But whatever you do, get a good coat of wax on your skis. Preferably hot wax and preferably above 0C wax.

Was hoping to hit Gunstock but my family does not feel like making spring weather turns! Feeling bummed out about this weather! I am ok with this in March but this weekend not so much. Refreeze will happen in Christmas Eve day which sucks since we planned on skiing then! Probably be a a skating rink or death cookies every where! Obviously not taking this well!

I'm planning to be at Pats on Tuesday burning a voucher. Haven't been on skis in 3 wks and am itching so will just make the best of it!

We are in the middle of a serious ICE storm a half inch down last nite , another half inch to an inch expected overnite as the heaviest freezing rain is expected tonite . Shades of our great ice storm of 1998 , sure hope power stays on . Our entire extended family was coming today but that is on hold till Monday and that is contingent on POWER . Ice is the worst condition , you can move snow with equipment but this crap renders you damn near helpless

In 72 hours at Crotched it went from 18" stashes in the trees to dirt patches and thin cover on main trails. Hope they get rain so they will be able to blow.

The bumps on UFO were great on Thursday night, but it was tempered by the fact that they would be gone very soon.

When Peaks brought in the snowmaking equipment it was amazing to see that they could blanket all the slopes in 7 days. Say what you want about its size, that's pretty impressive relative to the amount of revenue generated.

There are no bumps to be had. The ones under the Rocket have rock and dirt in the troughs. The bumps themselves are so soft you go through them. UFO is almost bare and there is dirt and rocks showing.on.Satellite and Plutos. They might be staring lower Plutos from scratch come Monday.

Love it but they cant when the snowmaking pond is mud. Actually hoping for rain or they wont recover until a few good storms.

Your area is a major topic on The Weather Channel, good luck Warp, hope all goes well for you and yours, ice sucks. Merry Christmas, if that's possible.
