1/24-1/25 storm

[WJenness]

So Winn, how's the second half of the week looking? NWS is forecasting a likely prob for snow in the hills on Thursday. Is this anything worth watching or just a dusting?

Hope it's worth watching...

Planning on Mt. Ellen on Thursday to take advantage of the $39 lift ticket...

Brutal here in CT. If this were only snow.....probably would have stayed up in VT last night and tonight!

Pouring as of right now in Northfield VT.

lebanon nh raining like crazy... this sucks.

The downpour has yet to start on Burke, although the winds are hauling like crazy the rain has been spotty and drizzle-like. Mt. closed today as the winds are heavy and given the radar we are bracing for impact. On the bright side, Burke's local meterologist saying we are getting some snow out of this for tomorrow, not sure about the accuracy but one can only hope. Hey Billski, thanks for your weather internet page, its very helpful to a meteoroligically challenge guy like me.

I haven't seen any of the radar images, but this storm just dropped a ton of water here in NJ.

Pouring in the MRV now. It looks like we're just about to get the heaviest bands pass over the state.

I don't even want to look out the window. I'll just look at my FIS calendar. Hey, February is looking outstanding. Did you notice, there are two Valentine's days in February :-o

Pouring.... haven't left the house all day.

The only positive spin I can put on today is that within hours, a lot of the water falling from the sky will be back in the sky in it's frozen form as it's launched out of a snowgun!

Along those lines, how about: "That's OK, Magic's snowmaking pond needed refilling anyway" ;-)

I'm pretty sanguine about this. Oh, it sucks, but personally I've had probably my best early season yet. And while this problem isn't trivial, at least it'll be short-lived.

Hunter is almost in flood stage... My basement is flooding.. Creek is lapping up to my yard...
Upper mountain closed.. Water pouring down Belt Parkway and Hellgate..

Wow, that sucks. Nothing like that up here yet, although it's still raining pretty hard. I'm hoping the worst is behind us, but the radar makes it look like we still have several hours left.

Cleared up here now.

Did you notice, there are two Valentine's days in February :-o

I noticed that too. Does Canada celebrate it on a different day? I'll take 2 big Valentine day storms however.

Oh man I used to get sooooo pissed when this kind of shit went down in the midwinter. I swore that was it-never again, it's a soul crushing experience. I am rooting for snow for you guys, it will come back, season has really just started

 

[JD]

definitely winding down for the last hour or so.....looks like one more pulse....so, when's the next dump coming?

Eh, it happens every year at least once and often times more than once. It will just take a foot of fresh and we'll be back at it!
