00z Canadian is in, and this **$(#$#$* worthless model also trends toward the Euro.

Not as bad as the GFS, but honestly, who gives a $*#& at this point?

RGEM and NAM both hitting on a decent front end thump. Monday night. It does change to hard rain, but maybe something to look forward too.

If this holds any truth its not a true disaster, at least for CBK. .2-.4 rain shouldn't be too much of a base burner and it's supposed to be warm on the other side of this so no hard freeze back to solid. They put a real good effort in dusting up trails this past week for the holiday so the base while not deep is solid. JB keeps on saying its not over so we will see.

Here's another Pocono call. I'm not really sure what we'd call this mix, how about "glop"?

Yea, Scranton TV (WNEP 16) up there was saying snow-rain-snow kind of in line with EPAWA yesterday. If the base can remain solid they should be ok. Too busy watching the Dev's beat the Flyers in front of a whole host of Fly fans in the East Side Bistro to really concentrate on what they were saying. I will say this, last week we (NW Morris) got a nightly dusting of snow almost each night and Camelback looked like they did better then us. Mountain looked wintery not just ribbons over dirt. Don't know when they will start to shut down snowmaking. Scuttle butt is they would like to try and keep at least the East Side open into April for the Hotel.

So we go from record cold to record warm in 48 hours? RGEM which has been decent in close range says the cold hangs on for the first ~6 for the precip. Everyone gets a couple inches before the immature snow.

If someone challenged you to draw the worst possible single storm track to screw over the most east coast ski areas in one event, I'm pretty sure you couldn't do much better than this.
