Tim Kelly is forcasting snow for over 2,000 ft. Please hope he right. Come on elavation storm.... dump snow on cannon and wildcat...

I will let you know tommorrow. I'm heading up to Loon in the AM. Wish me luck and pray for snow....

p.s., our weather prognosticators have only a 50-50 track records of being right. Flip a coin, you can be a weatherguy too, if you're pretty enough...

Probably wont even being doing anything while you are there. And my bet on this storm is loon will get all rain and a good old fashion notch dump snow for cannon.

I think that the snowfall map might be accurate, but only after a S%$&LOAD of rain falls on the existing snowpack. I've heard of 1-1.5" of rain in the Killington area before the change over. The cold air is supposed to come pouring in on the backside of the system with temps down into the single numbers on saturday night at elevation.

I am going to be going into the Poconos on saturday as we are scouting for a place to relocate both the family business and our home. I will probably get a day in at Cammelback if the weather is good.

It rained on the seacoast of NH (Wed night) it wasn't even close to sleeting. It's clearly a wash for January.

I recommend watching Nine hours straight of T.V.

I've been sulking and angry about the weather all week. It really gets to me to hear people say how nice the weather is :angry: .

Hey Brian, stop using that flaming emoticon - it's just making things hotter around here. :wink:

Good point, we need a snowing emoticon instead!

These are the only ones I could find...

The earliest hope for this pattern to leave is the end of January. Hopefully at that point we can get winter going again.

Thanks, that's a good icon. Too bad it can't be jammed into the phpBB code.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Maybe Santa will be good to us on Sunday. I'm saying a prayer that the cold air will blow in sooner.

We ain't need no bleepin' rain. Can't grow crops or flowers, and the NWS is wasting too much time issuing flood warnings. We need them to get their focus back on the white stuff. If I owned a husky sled dog, the poor thing would be dead about now.

Drive around with your ski racks on. Maybe that will help...
