So the flatlands get the snow and ski country gets boned. All while I scheduled my time off to go to Vermont?

Seems about right.

Bigtime signals for a possible storm ahead of PDW. Not saying it's going to happen of course as that's very far away, but everything is favorable.

Poconos could get 10 to 12 inches out of this is everything goes right (which of course it wont!).

BGs map above shows VT getting some snow, and they've been doing well recently. I doubt the ski areas are feeling boned right about now.

Conditions are absolutely fantastic. Have to see how they hold up from the rain & mixed 11pm Tuesday to about 10am Wednesday, but hopefully it wont be too bad because the air aloft for ADK and n.VT (areas I care about) is modeled only marginally too warm for much of that "bad" timeframe, so I'm not ready to say it's just going to be a terrible soaker yet. With any luck maybe it will be snow, sleet, rain combo with less rain than thought.

Just checked my webcams up North. I'd say about 4" of snow. Looks like it's still snowing as well. Hopefully, it'll stay frozen and the rain will hold off.

Looks like the rain should have minimal impact if this map plays out.. hardened base followed by a foot of snow in svt

I look at that map and I see a bunch of golf clubs laying around pointing in different directions...

Then take 10 minutes and play around, here is a hint...winter weather section or precipitation.

When the local hills get a snowstorm it's a beautiful thing...

 

[Rowsdower]

Big money, no whammies.

 

[WJenness]

No need to apologize, just giving a heads up. For every snowstorm he'll post the map with the solution that shows the most snow to get clicks. Does the same with hurricanes, etc... Focuses on population centers (NYC, DC, Boston). It's really irresponsible stuff.

Based on forecasts now coming out... Looks like this one might be the proverbial nut for this blind squirrel... <shrug>

 

[BenedictGomez]

He wont be wrong when there IS a decent snowfall. He'll be wrong when there ISNT a decent snowfall.

Snowfall --> hysteria --> web hits --> money.

That's just the alternative weather!

Things looking VERY good for the Northeast! Southern storm Thursday, northern storm Monday, with a small refresher system in between.

 

[Not Sure]

Poconos FTW ...get it before it melts

Pretty funny!

So there might be a reason for me to visit Big Boulder/Jack Frost since it is part of my Peaks pass.

Any pitch at those places?

Ha - certainly not at boulder. It's been turned into one 400 vert foot terrain park basically.

Jack Frost has a few nice pitches, but at 600' it's like two pitches per run....back on the lift....

Having said that, I skied JF with my kids for a number of years and enjoy the place for what it is. If there is a lot of snow on the ground, they encourage glade skiing, and there actually are a couple of nice - short, but nice - glades, and little cliffs, and what not to entertain yourself with. Keep in mind, the Pokes are only 1-1/2 - 2 hours from me, so, you know...there's that...

You'll find them all in about two hours, but if you go, send me a PM, I'll make sure you don't miss anything.

Also - find the the elevator. Steepest thing in the poconos for about 100'. Not sure if they 'opened' it this year or not.
