My biggest issue with this season is the fact that I've been working WAY too much and not skiing nearly enough... Not the weather.

Last year wasn't too far below average in precipitation amounts, it's just that most of it fell in the liquid form and then when it did fall as snow, all too often a day or 2 later is was back in the 40's (or warmer) and it melted
Variable weather is what makes us East Coaster's a special breed! And for that I'm proud to call myself an East Coast Skier!
Since I've blocked it from my memory, inaccuracies are not a surprise.
*cough* Sick day?
Mental health day?
Playing doctor? I'll call you in if you call me in?
Board meeting? To discuss the boards you're currently on, the boards you like and the boards you don't like.
Eye problem? Can't see a reason to be at work when I'm on the chairlift.

Not complaining about the weather. It was good enough last weekend and I knew that (I didn't have to work either). But I was ... sick!

Not so sure about a blizzard in the strict sense of the word. The NAO signal doesn't look that impressive--not enough to really curl something offshore into us like we would like to see to get sustained strong winds for blizzard-like conditions--sort of like the configuration from Sandy. Other signals are kind of meh/neutral, but it does look colder, no doubt--just not too confident on getting a whopper of a nor'easter to curl in on us. Systems that curl through may flare up just a bit too far out to sea or northeast. Still watching though!

Thanks Winn, those guys said on their FB blizzard possible but I trust you and cold is Great.

Not worried at all by several days above freezing. It's still early January and we've been lucky to have some powder days already.. but right now is base-building times. Once this snow finally firms up when it gets cold again it's not going away for a long time (let's hope!)

Also good coverage in the woods in January is rare. So far, so good!

I'll be monitoring trip reports from today through Sunday at a variety of places: Cats, ADK, n.VT to see how much damage (if any) is done. At very least, given the terrible potential that was plausible it looks like we'll escape relatively unscathed. Might get pretty icy, but...... such is life.
Gunstock now using AZ mobile for first time. Comfortable temps...foggy up top...calm winds...doesnt look like much terrain loss since r shpwers were fairly light last night...a few trls from last week clsd...but a couple others are open. Soft sugar snow with a few icy spots...much lighter crowds so not skiing off as quickly. Actually very pleasant out...sun may peek through sometime.

Winn, I have the same problems with Alpine Replay, it only uploads 1 run, but if you log into the website on a computer you can get all of your stats. The navigation of the site takes some getting used to, but your data is there.
It finally picked up some data--but of the 20 or so runs I did today, it only logged 4. Their Customer Support said to download the latest version to help with data uploads. It seems like a cool app if I can get it to work properly.

I had the same problem all weekend. And I'm running the newest version. Been spending too much time (and battery life) trying to make this thing work - uninstalling. Too bad, we had a lot of fun with it last year when it was working.
