I have tomorrow off, what mtn should I head toward for the most new snow? I'm coming from Boston and going north, I'm kinda thinking gunstock. WhAt do u guys think?

I wouldn't decide based upon this storm--most areas north of Boston won't get very much, although Crotched/Pats/Shawnee stand the best chance of "some" accumulation. Even then, you're only talking a few inches at best. With all resorts in good shape as it is, it just comes down to mountain preference on this one. Hope that helps.

Snowboard, can ride just aBout anywhere. Was just hoping for some pow like I got a few weeks ago at magic mtn(thurs), but I guess that's not gonna happen this time. Maybe I'll just stay close to home and hit up the massive blue hills ski resort.

You might want to think about the Berkshires. They are Gunstock-sized and have been getting steady pow all week.

Nice...looks like it's not raining at Blue.

It doesn't look like its doing anything at Camelback via the web cam. Radar shows what looks to be blossoming snow near the mountain and the slug of moisture coming up from the southwest looks healthy. Still think I'm gonna to go to Blue tonight.

I've got 4"-5". I just finished clearing the walks and there was a light freezing mist coming down. Roads seem pretty good for now.

Grey and overcast here in Woburn, MA... no precip yet.

I'm OK with that, would prefer a dry ride home in an hour and a half...

Then it can dump :)
