March 5 Storm?

[from_the_NEK]

Things are still pretty scratchy here since last weekends mini thaw. Even 5 inches would be great.

Supposedly the 12z Euro came further south, and is colder now.

This might have me skiing a little bit more in the Pocono's in March then I had originally planned. I'm really hoping the north country gets more then its looking.

Family's in South Jersey and on the shore. Much more into boating and summer activities.

Growing up I don't remember seeing too many people around who were skiers. For the adults, snowstorms were something to be endured.

It's really amazing. For once, the Poconos arent getting screwed. I imagine this is likely their best season in decades. I skied Shawnee on December 15, and the conditions were great then, normally I would NEVER even consider skiing in the Poconos before January.

where do you pull the maps from?

Depends. Some of them I "steal" from others if I happen to see them posted, and some of them (like the Canadian below) I ran myself. (I didnt bother posting the Canadian as it came so far south and is so much slower and colder that it's probably not a good run. My guess is the 00z Canadian will trend back to its northern position tonight). It's public information. The Euro is a bit different as you have to pay for precipitation maps from those cheap bastards.

do i use my PLATY Voucher Sat. and Hunter Sunday come experience our hills with snos alpins zone.

come experience the Catakills this weekend.

This is going to be interesting. Cold is really suppressing this thing south. If it moves north more the Catskills and Berkshires could really crank some high ratio fluff out of this.
