Was thinking about playing hookie for the better part of next week.

Two work things to get taken care of by Friday and I should be able to swing it...

Drumroll please...

Thanks...You just ruined it!

No, no...

I jinxed myself for the benefit of everyone else.

Everything will fall on my head now, I won't be able to take any time off from work, and next week will be amazing.

You're welcome.

Well here is a lot of optimism

It’s amazing what an inch of heavy snow will do. Our trail count has jumped to 90% and with more snow in the forecast, we could be back to the 100% mark by the weekend.

Glenn Fisher That is awesome to hear! We will be coming up to visit from March 19th to 24th. You still think the glades will be in good enough shape to ride by any chance? Thanks in advance!

Jay Peak Resort We'd love to have that kind of crystal ball Glenn, but with 369" of snow so far this season and March being our second snowiest month, that chance seems deep.

I wonder how much of that 369 inches of snow is still there!

I'm really liking the set-up for this next shot on goal. Still 6 days out, which it too far to get excited, but unlike most model porn, the conditions present actually make sense for a storm to develop.

Wow - that would be awesome.....kids haven't had a snow day all year, and we're itching to ski one more day.....Tuesday> Wednesday FTW?

I have zero going on at work and class is on break next week so there's no way it snow....

Another day closer and it's still looking good.

Looks like the Poconos get the next two storms. Guess I'll be at Jack Frost.

It does look that way, but it is the Poconos, so there's plenty of time to get screwed.

I may actually show up at Shawnee or Camelback Tuesday night for my once-a-year Pocono trip if they do get 15 or so inches out of this.

Mid-Atlantic, New England, both?

I may join you.

Looking at the forecast (Weather Underground) - it looks like more southern - higher snow fall for home (CT) and Mount Snow than Killington or Sugarbush

 

[Rowsdower]

Now it looks like the Catskills and So Vt. are in on the action too.

Would take Camelback over Shawnee on a rare powder day. Midweek, March... probably won't be any crowds to contend with. I'd rather Frost if Happyland has enough cover though.

 

[Kleetus]

If this keeps trending the way it is maybe there's hope for a couple more days at Magic for this season after all via next weekend

Sweet. Jesus.

I know it's just one run of one models...but 00z GFS just spat out an epic storm that actually hits SKI COUNTRY. Not New Jersey. Not the Poconos. Not Long Island. Not the Cape. Not just Sugarloaf and Sunday River. ALL of ski country!

Solid 2 feet + in the Green Mountain spine, at Catskills, and the ADKs..
