12/21 Storm Speculation

[billski]

The glass is half full guys. We have a pretty good assemblage of base building so far. A little rain to firm it down during one of the most expensive days of the year, followed by some serious dumpage will set us up to be way better than last January. Remember how sucky last January was? No complaints thus far. Skis crossed...

Just hope it doesnt rain too hard an lose the base.. Xmas eve rain followed by a storm say the 28th would be perfect for my jan 1-3 pico/killington trip

Snow for Mass tonight any hills with running lift s like B East or any Jiminy getting it. Maybe worth a try of another hill besides Catamount and ma to add the Platty of ma on my list tomorrow?

Based on what I skied on today, I don't think that we need a firmer base than what we already have.

No. This is a coastal thing. SE Mass and metro Boston. That's it.
Scotty, if you want freshies tomorrow, go to Yawgoo or Blue Hills!

Burke. They've got a bullet proof base right now, especially on the lower half of the mountain.

x2 Bases are firm enough.

This is similar to what happened last year at this time. I remember skiing Christmas Eve day and it was bulletproof. Doubt I'll venture out Wednesday to ski.

I wonder if anyone will open wednesday. Ski in the upper 40s and rain. Tomorrow is going to be yucky with major icing concerns for the mountains. Please give us some snow soon!

Not that this matters but skiing today was almost spring like snow and it was snowing.
