With another few inches Friday night, big storm Monday, maybe a storm Thursday? I'm going up to ski Thursday/Friday before the crowds get to it.

SoVT now has a Winter Storm Warning. Looking like 8-12" of snow being called for by NWS out of Albany.

Thinking of heading that way for Sunday and banging into work on Monday for some pow turns at Magic provided they get a big dump out of this storm on Sunday-Monday.

Sounds like you had 3 nice days out of 4.

Nice!

Well, speaking in future tense - supposed to be heading up to stowe tonight, but reports are everything is frozen pretty solid. Think we are gonna cancel.

Whiteface somehow pulled off 6" last night. Reporting "Powder / Packed Powder" conditions. Not sure how long that could possibly hold up as I imagine an ice sheet just under that. Unfortunately their snow reports are not very detailed in ways that don't leave much to the imagination.

So, after a very nice storm today(not in the forecast 4 days ago) and something else on Saturday, Sunday/Mondays storm could rival today's and another possibility for Wed/Thurs. 3 weeks ago we were facing multiple warm r$^$ events, each one turned to frozen precip, and then a foot of powder today. Amazing how the tides have turned!!

I'm pretty excited about Monday if it stays the course. Maybe some mix south but north looking good

Sunday/Monday = BOMB
Thursday is something to watch too, some showing clippers other showing another bomb.

 

[Glenn]

The Albany NWS forecast discussion is a good read for Sunday/Monday...and the mid week storm. Potential!

Well following the typical New England pattern warm January snowy February - all good now.

PDW looks to be awesome. All sorts of opportunities for snow in the next few weeks.

 

[Kleetus]

Josh Fox from Single Chair Wx posted it's game on for Sunday-Monday. Models look to be honing in on agreement on the track.

Hope this isn't a bust as I had to put in to get Monday off now and just did.

JB was saying this last week, that while people were watching this last storm(Niko per TWC), he was watching the change in the SOI in the pacific, and he thought this should lead to something interesting this next week.

I said this back on Dec 19th in another thread (I'm no meterologist)

I expect it will be a warm (not necessarily blowtorch) for the holidays, little natural, but good snowmaking nights. Cold will be advertised for early January by the models 7 days out but won't actually show up till late January, so terrain expansion will be slow and people will have to stay away from the ledge. Then snow and probably some more numbing cold before finally settling in for a rather pleasant final 6 to 8 weeks of the season. In other words a typical northeast season.

Feeling better about our decision to bail on this weekend mostly because we would have had to leave Sunday and it sure looks like Monday is gonna rock....would be sick about drying away from all that fresh snow.

I saw your prediction back in Dec and thought it was spot on. So far tracking pretty well with what's actually happened.

Sunday-Monday? Pfffftttttt.... That will be peanuts compared to what's printing on the European model for Wednesday. Fingers crossed.

 

[Kleetus]

Saw that too. Couldn't get Wednesday off and this looked like more of a sure thing so pulled the trigger for Monday.

If Wednesday happens that's the real show.

Ha I'm going to be in Lake Placid skiing Whiteface Sunday, probably fast n' firm at best, driving back Sunday afternoon/night to Massachusetts in this snow. Makes ya jealous don't it?

Although I retired from posting pictures to this subforum due to some people's abject douchebaggery, this is such ridonkulous potential snowporn that I couldnt help but come out of retirement for this.

Avert your children's eyes.
