corn snow soon?

quote from last portion of Matt's post (link referenced above)

"The exception to this may come in the Northeast United States in the final week of March with a shot of Canadian cold, which is why I've kept from expanding much above average temperatures east of the Great Lakes. As for precipitation, a split flow for the bulk of the month (separated northern and southern streams - keeping energy and moisture divided) will likely limit widespread precipitation events."

Let's hope the precipitation forecast holds true... and, the mad river blog guy is even more pessimistic!

We're not expecting a base-killer--it's the tail end of a weakening cold front so precip totals are not exptected to be high with showers scattering out a bit more as they arrive. Can't rule out an isolated heavier shower but still, it's not a soaker from the south. Hope that helps.

Thanks. I'm going regardless, now I won't be in such a sour mood for the next 5 days.

That's fantastic news!!!

Because he's been wrong and generally overly optimistic this entire winter season. He's pretty much a contrarian indicator. lol

Winn, sorry to bother you with a stupid question, but I know that your NY forecasts are autoloaded, and I'm looking for a little more info.

I have a trip planned to Whiteface for Sun/Mon. How bad will the rain be at the end of the week? Nuisance or a base-killer? I'm expecting firm conditions in the morning, softening during the day into nice soft snow. Basically classic spring skiing. Does this sound reasonable?

We're watching the potential for another storm (this time from the south) that may sneak in Monday--that could be even rainer--we'll be watching and will try to keep you posted. Considering it may be a slow mover, chances are it may be delayed til after your Sun-Mon trip.

Yeah, I've seen that pop up on some forecasts. Like I said, I'm going regardless, so I'm just going to have to make the best of it. Worst case scenario, I ski for an hour and get a voucher for another day.

Here you go. They have a better chance of storms than we do through March.

Thank you Winn, ya I love that website I just wanted to make sure it be cold in Slc that weekend and looking good.

Sunday looking like temperaturs in 50 for high and sunny at Mt Snow, that could bring soft corn snow.

We're going somewhere. Might take the girlfriend to Gore, she was real upset she couldn't go last Sunday. I can get $59 tickets from Price Chopper. Vermont is tempting too.
