1/26 Manitoba Mauler

Convective feedback issues. RGEM kept on forming new lows under convection which pulled it east. NAM had the same issue. I think the GFS will pull east a bit, but it's all noise.

Ride the EURO.

GFS is east. So now we have to hope that:

A) The Euro doesnt also go east
B) The Euro is correct, and literally every other model is wrong.

Yeah GFS ticked east. Definitely ride the Euro.

NAM initialized wrong.

Good news for VT, NH, and Maine.

Same old same old for those to the south. C'est la vie.

Now if there were only some mountains around here..As it is I'm wondering if I'll be able to get out to go skiing. I live in the far eastern part..2 to 3 feet of snow...really? :roll:

May I interrupt the regular programming to interject a big thanks? ;-)

I've been using this sub-forum to guide my skiing in the northeast. But the last couple years, I've started to use it to guide my flight out west and back.

Saturday night, I saw the brewing of the storm first on here! A few hours later, it's all over the news. But by then, I've already changed my flight to come back a day earlier.

A couple hr later, airline cancelled my original flight for Monday! Everyone was scrambling to get on the limited flights that were still flying today and not everyone made it on the plane. I threaded the needle between the Friday/Saturday mini-storm and Monday/Tuesday's "big one", thanks to alpinezone.

The Euro is not backing down on this one! I'm firmly in the 18-24 stripe.

NAM caves west! All hail the king!

CT peeps.....what does it take for the state to shut down the roads? I'll be in Cromwell the next couple nights. I'm hoping to night ski at Sundown on Tuesday. I'll be pissed if I'm not allowed to drive anywhere Tuesday

we're a bunch of pussies here. i suspect a state of emergency will be declared for tuesday, along with a travel ban of some sort.

i think madroch got stuck at sundown last year when a travel ban was implemented AFTER he got there.. poor guy.

That's awesome!

Our flight from Myrtle Beach to Boston last night was completely full - and many of them were standby passengers.

I am tentatively planning on Crotched on Tuesday. Whether or not I ski Wednesday remains to be seen.
