Crusher Beware 12/09/14

[St. Bear]

I'm going to Elk Wed regardless of what happens. Free voucher that I need to use makes the decision easy.

I'll be by myself, so if anyone is planning on being there, give a shout.

Not true. Bretton Woods has an excellent firm base already. I was in the ungroomed and glades all day on Sunday without a problem. Cover is good enough that I am going to be taking out the news skis for this storm. Throw a foot on powder on top and it would be amazing.

You shouldn't get anything that even resembles powder.

If what you say above is true and the conditions are already fantastic, I would have to imagine this may even short-term "hurt" the ski experience, but will long-term be very beneficial.

New Albany NWS map upped snowfall totals for southern VT.

This could deliver for the Southern Greens.

What is the timing of this coming up through NJ, NY, CT? I'm driving down to western NJ tonight (Lambertville) for work rolling in around 9pm and hopeful that the storm has not yet started.
Would make a long drive even worse

Nothing should start there until early tomorrow morning.

[St. Bear]

Go to Whiteface. Or at the very least Hunter.

Had a day off already planned, heading up to Stratton tonight for tomorrow. Couldn't make any other day work this week...Wednesday is sounding like THE day though...

for a meteorologist i find his ski/snowboard forecasts to be so so, other ski/board forecasters did a much better job last year

To be honest, his snowcasts are too "Bro" for me. That, and he's super optimistic. If all his forecasts came true, New England would get as much snow as Utah.

 

[Farleyman]

who else does snowcast? He's the only one I've seen on Facebook. Haven't really looked else where tho

Work in Lambertville? What are you an antiques dealer?

Yeah, this thing might hammer the Catskills pretty nicely if the track pans out. Over 12" is doable for sure.

Haha no, I work in Supply Chain management. Software company we work with hosts training sessions there on occasion given the folks who run it are somewhat local to the area.
I've heard Lambertville is a decent little town

Burlington NWS just posted this. More and more are predicting less mixed stuff. Might be worth a trip after all.

Quaint is how I'd describe it. A bit too touristy though.

 

[St. Bear]

This is a lot more conservative than most forecast I've seen. I have a sneaking suspicion this is a closer to the final product the 12+ maps.

Adirondacks do fine. The big snows will be from central vermont northeast to northern maine. Saddleback could get destroyed with feet of snow by their opening day
