So Tim Kelly paints it as it is...

The roads were hell.. but the skiing was heaven. Now back to screwed up weather for a couple days. But there is snow in the extended forecast (what's new right?)

Things are looking much better for the weekend! Snow forecasted right through into Monday for Northern VT. Jay got 2-3 last night.

Sunday/Monday could be nice.

Nice! You should have a great day Monday. Fingers crossed for some decent snowfall.

Looks like Cannon had potential for snow this weekend too.

I hate to be pessimistic, but until we get a good 10-12 we will be skiing dust on crust. My concern is that all this new snow will be dry and not stick, just to be scraped off. I hope I'm wrong.

If we get some dumpage early next week (we've got a 50-50 shot for next sun/mon), I'm gone. I'm heading to NVT next week anyways.

Superbowl sunday is a weird animal. It's usually packed most of the day. People still have enough time to get home for the game

A glass 1/2 empty kinda guy huh? =)

I'll take anything after the weather we had this week. Even dust on crust is better than 45-50 degrees and rain.

I didn't say I'd stay home. I always ski with a glass half full. I am painting it as I've seen it play out the last few years. Just saying I'm not expecting anything stellar to ski on this week. Still hoping for more...

Yes you're right this isn't going to be anything major. I'm just glad winter is back!

We bagged SR tomorrow. I will be at Cannon on Sunday for a few hours before the game hopefully.

The weather just isn't getting any better, I need to stop looking.....its making me Insane !

Accuweather has Rain / Ice events through the next few weeks...if you can believe the long range, although its saying snow shower / flurries this weekend. We need a Storm, not the flurries shit.
Hope Accuweather is wrong...........

Beech Mt. Resort got 5-7" and they have a reported 52" base. Resorts around are only reporting 30" bases. WTF!
