I believe Magic charges full price if there is a Thursday powder day. Still worth it though!

Beautiful morning down here as this storm is over-performing here in NNJ and hopefully in Pocono's as well where CBK is supposed to get 5". I saw where BG said he lost a lot of snow yesterday but we didn't here and the Pocono's didn't either. Bases (at least at Blue & CBK) are deep and surfaces are for the most part good. Already a good year to be a Pocono skier.

Looking at Bear Creek or Blue later today...Southern Lehigh county 7'' so far, looks like a few hrs left.
Takes me an hour and a half to dig out, can't leave with all the snow in the driveway or the neigbors drive on it and pack it down.

FOR WEDNESDAY STORM
12z GFS is out, brings brunt of Wednesday storm over New Jersey, then though CT, RI, and all of Mass.
12z NAM also brings brunt of Wednesday storm over New Jersey, but also over Catskills due to track, then through CT, RI, and all of MA, but also gets into Southern VT and Southern NH as it's a touch more north than GFS.
12z Canuck also brings brunt of Wednesday storm over New Jersey, but also over Catskills and ALL of southern New York and ALL of southern New England, AND gets big good snowfall rates into 1/2 of VT and NH. Much larger pcp system is why.
EDIT: Added Canadian info....last model to finalize. Added model peak depictions.

Woods Hole Sea Grant I assume? I work with some of the NY SeaGrant folks in my capacity as a Councilor on NYs Marine Resources Advisory Council which advises NY DEC on issues concerning the NYS Marine District.

Today on the Jersey Shore we have 5-8 inchs of very pretty-to-look-at, heavy, wet nuisance snow that isn't giving the mountains up north more than a few inches, if that. So I get to look at this some more before I go shovel it and hope that the roads are plowed for tomorrow's workday. I hate southern storms.

I doubt Rutgers closes tomorrow so I'll have to teach. Looks like we're getting hit several times this week though. Weekend is looking good. Might make Friday a personal day.

Yep, they are closed today. I think my daughter should take a personal day Friday and head to Hunter.

Seems perfect time to check out the hill in Roxbury Ny. Hunter is great if you snow all day virgin powder I would go to Roxury NY.

Her justification is that several of the professors will be as well :wink:
Stopped here in Piscataway. Maybe 6-8 inches on the ground.

It did indeed trend north. They got snow up into the Cats and (hopefully) are getting slammed Tuesday night-Wed. I'm taking a chance that this is the case. They got a winter storm watch up and I got the last room at the local B&B for a sweet price and two Hunter Mt lift tickets @ $41 each!Just hope the lift lines aren't too long..this is going to be too awesome for many to pass up, even midweek..Weekend should be awesome, esp with more in the forecast for Saturday and Sunday!

:lol: Unfortunately she has to work too. She has Weds free so we've planned a day trip to Hunter first wed in March. That's the next time I'm off on a Wednesday so here is hoping this pattern continues thru February into March.
She's a responsible kid, unlike me.
Actually,I just lucked out as I'm always off Thursdays and Friday.Last time I lucked out like this was Leap Day, Feb 29,2012, when it snowed all day that Wed and Thursday and I had off and quickly planned a trip to Gore. Tons of pow for that Thursday and Friday. Then it warmed up and rained that Saturday but I was already headed home.
Gotta go while the going is good!

Albany goes balls to the wall. Is that a 14-18 patch I see over the Mt Snow area?
