Based on the deluge at my office right now (about 50 miles due South of Wachusett) and the way the precip is moving, Wachusett is going to get soaked in the next hour or so :eek:

Let's see skiing in the rain in Vermont or riding my bike in 50 degree sun in CT?
I know what I'm doing. Yes I know there are limited ski days left, I hate rain.

Looks like one wall of precip on the radar...let's hope it comes through quickly...

Looks like the more "southern" mountains might be the place to ski this weekend. The north might not not quite see the warmup, therefore just being solid on the ungroomed.

Hoping to get some spring bumps at Magic on Saturday. Anyone have a varying opinion?

Yup, pretty much had about 45 minutes of it seeming like a fire hose was squirting outside, now back down to just some light drizzle/showers

Canceled my weekend trip to Lake Placid. Sometimes Mother Nature blows. :(

I'm staying local this weekend as it may be the last for here.(it will be mine as I head north and west for the next month) According to the web cam CBK came through quite well. Should be a warm spring fest and the deck will be cranking after skiing.(good band playing at the bar Saturday) The snow will definately be soft and I can't see anyone but the regular nuts there.

looking at strong wind gusts for Saturday along the spine, with diminished precip.
Could be some wind holds. Still waiting to see how things shape up for tomorrow.

Thinking maybe a Saturday ski day turns into Sunday even though daylight savings time starts.

then again, if you're up there and you get lucky...
