At the same time as New England is having a meltdown. Sunday River has been conservative running their guns over the last week. They are holding out for long windows. Their latest snow report says they are waiting for an extended cold snap late this week. I don't know what they are smoking, but I want some.

It's supposed to cool down in Maine at least towards the end of the week with snowmaking temps Thursday through Saturday. So right now there appears to be hope.

They could probably be making snow up on T2 tonight if they wanted to no? Supposed to be high 20s at the base of the mountain.

Yes, it's cold right now, but they have said they wanted an extended window before running the guns again. This current cold snap isn't as long as the end of the week's (hopefully) will be. Wednesday is supposed to be warm and I've seen some rain potentially forecast.

Its called radiational cooling. The valleys tend to be colder than the peaks (especially at SR's peak elevations) on these nights. So the temps up on T2 may not be low enough.

I think this highly informational video describes the process of why no mountain will make snow tonight or tomorrow night...

Sunday-Tuesday of next week looks like a washout as well.

Killington made snow last night.

They probably saw the forecast and realized that was going to be one of their few opportunities to try to stay above water.
