Yeah, from poking around various online reports, it seems Killington south is being affected by ice and freezing rain. This sucks. Good for Sugarbush northward it seems though!
yeah, i'm hoping k doesnt get damaged too bad by this, hoping to go there tomorrow. nice that sugarbush has $14 dollar lift tickets tomorrow (v-day) just in case I have to drive the extra hour.
In my and I'm guessing 95% of the people's opinion here, you'd be foolish not to drive the extra hour. Sugarbush is FAR AND AWAY a better mountain than Killington. It really isn't even close.
pray the niar doesn't get that far.... I think I will wait for reports on Thursday for Friday visits. Have car, will travel....

It sucks here right now, 15 minutes from Wachusett.
Are you going skiing today? Is Blue even open in this crazyness?

If you have been in Southern NH and VT you would know that this storm will benefit more than hurt. The one thing sounthern NE needed was base. So if I lose good woods skiing for a week in order for them to soften up and then they are open for twice as long its ok with me.
I only ended up drinking 2 beers this morning.
I know what you're saying and I knew the "this is good for the base" argument would come up, but it's the middle of effin February. Central NE needs some powder dumps, not more base building sleet and cold rain...

I know what your talking about but 8 - 12 inches of powder wouldnt do anything for the woods. It would be scraped off and crap in a week. I agree they need some pow but im trying to say this storm isnt exactly a negative thing because when we get that snow the woods will be open twice as long.
I'm feeling a lot better about our weather up here, reading this. We were just dry-slotted for awhile this morning and then we got a couple of hours of steady snow, and thankfully avoided the unfrozen, semi-frozen mess of parts south. Looks like we just missed it by about 20-30 miles or so.
