Hey Winn, Any clue how we did with snow moisture (or whatever you call it?) I see it's pretty heavy in so. VT. Looks like red wax is the tool of the day.

Are you sure? It was snowing there as I drove by at 3:45 yesterday, and 93 had snow on it.

Whiteout all of yesterday at Okemo. I was heading to killington, but the drive took to long. Figured I'd get more fresh at Okemo anyways. Also it was my first time

See that website not accurate, Platty got 6 inches as of this morning, 6 inches can make lots of good things great.

It's not the site Scotty. Most sites use the same feed. If Platty didn't update their feed....don't shoot the messenger!

Never is. Always will be valley/flatland. That's why we need meteos like Winn Chill. From what I can gather, most everything above 1,000 feet was snow. Generalized of course.
