you might need to get your thermometer checked..39 at Jay Peak????

When I got up this morning my thermometer said 31 and Jays snow report said 29, only 2 degrees different. I know it was above freezing because the snow was melting as it hit our skis on the lift.

20 degrees right now and still snowing.

Here's my live snow report from my drive to NH from Jersey.

Jersey: Nothing
Westchester, NY: Flurries
Danbury, CT: Nothing
Waterbury, CT: Whiteout
Hartford, CT: Nothing
Mass Pike: Snow
Worcester, MA: Nothing
495: Snow
Southern NH: Snow, about 2" on the ground as of 11pm

I'll be at Black tomorrow. If anybody else is there and wants to get some runs in, come up and say hi. I'll be skiing alone, red jacket with grey shoulders, black snow pants.

We had a couple of snow squalls in Sussex Co. so I have a dusting in my yard, it's better than nothing.

I'm guessing an additional 2-3" fell this evening at Mount Snow, although it's tough to tell as the wind is really gusting right now I'm guessing wind holds tommorrow based on what it's doing now and the forcast. Good thing though is that via upslope precip tommorrow, the NWS forcast here is calling for another 3-5" during the day

The drifts infront of my place when I arrived tonight were pretty impressive - a solid 18"+ on my front walk which had been shoveled out mid-afternoon by the grounds crew here

This morning as I peak outside the window I see roughly double what we had yesterday so Im not sure why skiburke.com says 3 inches.(Their web-site is awful I found) I reckon 6 inches AT LEAST and on my deck it is more like 8-10inches OvERNIGHT and still snowing. Today should be a blast!!!

10=15 inch storm total so far at Stowe..

 

[JPTracker]

Another 6 - 8 here at Jay overnight for a storm total of 14 - 18, per Jay's website which I can agree with, but we got wind this morning which may mean wind hold.

Finally, February is delivering.

MRG says they picked up an extra 10" of fluffy stuff overnight and SB is reporting 9". More on the way.

If I can just hold on until Sunday. I'm dying to get out, but I haven't got five uninterrupted minutes at the moment.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

It's also looking like another snowstorm late Saturday into Sunday..woo hoo..I'm leaving in 2 hours for the holy land..

 

[JD]

Dumped all night last night at the bush. And Stowe too I guess. Another 8 plus. 16 plus total with a clipper coming in. Sugarbush north is where I'd be heading.

2day Burke was phenomenal. Overnight turned out to be a solid 8-10 inches across the board, both groomed, ungroomed and glades were a great time, one for the memory books for sure. To make everything unreal tonight local forecasts are calling for a 4 to 8 inches AND the Sunday into Monday storm is looking more promising. All in all after 25 years on the slopes across the world I never have seen back to back to back powder days. Sweet.
