No idea. My math is bad, Remember - I'm on the vodka to numb the pain of watching sleet fall all day....

Seriously, I'm happy the Catskills/ADKs/NNE scored today!

But was there 22" on 44?

One more piece of snowporn for you poor southerners. Open at your own risk...likely to induce multiple snowgasms.

And the amazing thing is that it's still coming down as hard as ever.

We'll be skiing the Bush in 19 short days... Can't wait!

20" at Whiteface today. Thigh deep drifts could be found everywhere with the wind. Tracks were filling in almost immediately. Literally, the best day of riding Ive ever had in my life! Its only snowing harder now, and I cant wait for tomorrow to be even better.

Reports of 30+ inches of powder at Sugarbush on Skimrv forum!

Trailboss what are you up to in accumulation? I just decided I'm going up after school tomorrow, therefore taking Friday off and staying until Tuesday or Wednesday. It just sounds too good!

40" +

Left the Bush at about 5:30, had trouble finding my car as all the cars were just big white lumps. 40" so far and like King said it's still snowing hard. Maybe get some pics tomorrow.

This is at my place at pretty much the same elevation as King about a mile away. The hill got more. The windows measure 40" vertically.

Here's my Explorer at the base of Mt. Ellen at Sugarbush:

About 4" packed in sleet here. Probably would've been around 8" if it was all fluff.

At 4:45pm we had about 13-14". Have not been out since.

Now the wind is starting to kick in here in the Catskills...
It's going to be "drifty" tomorrow...

I won't be making it to the 'skills this weekend, but how are the trees on Hunter West?

 

[Greg]

Crazy North wind here tonight. We have drifting sleet.

Looking sweet... Ducked in and out of trees today a few times..

 

[thetrailboss]

Just heard on WCAX that the State of Vermont has pretty much declared a snow emergency...all non-essential travel is prohibited and all commercial trucks are being forced to stop travel on the highways. In my life, I have NEVER seen them do that before.
