Berkshire Snow Totals?

[Greg]

Jiminy Peak's Web site states they received a foot of new snow today. I looked at the Intellicast radar loop and it seems the Berkshires got the most out of today's clipper. Anyone in the area have a report? Better yet, anyone been up to Jiminy or the Beast today?

Can't understand why you don't want to try out Berkshire East.

Can't understand why you don't want to try out Berkshire East.

My typical local ski partner, my father-in-law, is from Southwest CT and has an extra 45 minutes of drive time than me. Jiminy is about 20 minutes closer and when you're traveling 2 1/2 hours, that 20 minutes can make the difference. We're both big Jiminy fans as with the 5 minute six pack we can get in a lot more vertical than we could at the Beast. It's all economics really.

If BE is still open this Friday, I'll be there. Will you? :wink:

I have never skied the Berks, but I hope all you powder hounds have a wonderful day there today....

dare I give you a hint about what could be shaping up later in the week??

In this winter of the "abnormal", we could go out with a bang

But I won't jinx it....

Do tell. There are a lot of rumblings about a good snowfall Tuesday night and maybe again Friday. Again, if anyone is game for meeting up at Berkshire East on Friday, see this thread:

Based on the forecasts, it looks like Friday has the potential to be a great day at the Beast!

As soon as I hung up the phone after setting a 3/17 cleaning appointment with my dentist about a month ago I thought "Watch, we'll have a major storm and I'll be in the dentist's chair." Now, add to that the fact that I can't get a day off this week means we'll get 20" or more. Enjoy it on Wednesday! Get out early!

Oh stop yer whining. . .it's not that bad. . .I should be able to get out Tuesday or Wednesday night.

Jimme :lol:
