Wow that's some Nostradamus stuff there. I'm worried it might rain on my tee time on May 12th :smile:

Finally actually going to ski this weekend. Will follow the best snow but expecting to end up at Sugarbush or Sunday River. Nothing like taking 6 weeks off in the middle of the season to get you out of the groove but I'm ready to make up for lost time.

lol. yea i know its crazy to worry about 3 weeks out, but the general trend on open snow this morning has warm temps in utah and co and the jet stream east of the rockies. its pure conjecture, but enough for me to go ugh

Today and tomorrow will be the best days...while we are at work. But at least its delivering.
tomorrow looks a bit brisk:
Moderate to heavy snow expected through this evening. Highest snowfall amounts of 6-10 inches will likely be along the International border and western slopes of the Green and Adirondack Mountains. 3-6 Inches expected outside the warning. Cold temperatures and brisk winds will bring wind chills to -15 to -25 F early Fri morning in parts of the Adirondacks and much of central-northern Vermont. Read More >

6 inches on my deck in Fayston (@1200 ft). Steady snow, wind picking up a bit. 26 degrees. If it weren't for a 1;30 conference call....

Will there be additional upslope snow after the Saturday/Sunday storm? If so, what’s the typical timing of upslope? 24hr?

I ask because I had a xc lesson appointment on Monday morning. But if there’s upslope snow Sunday night into Monday morning, it’s lousy to have xc lessons when it’s actually snowing. I have the option to cancel by end of Saturday. Not to mention if there’s a few inches sunday night, I’d prefer to downhill Monday morning.

5 inches of upslope snow after 4PM, 13 inch storm total. Mostly sunny with areas of blowing snow this morning. Highs around 3 above. Northwest winds 20 to 35 mph. Wind chill values as low as 37 below. Wind Chill Advisory in effect until 10AM EST.
A bit brisk

Went to a happy hour for the ski club in NYC...not one person knew about the meltdown, conditions, etc. A whole room full of people who don't ski the East anymore...

What's the point of information? What do I care about the moon phase and the tide in the middle of winter, even though it's "readily available" on the internet?

Back to this weekend. Wildcat is close all day due to wind. Must be real bad up there.
