I am seeing rain on the radar. Hearing that its raining in VT. Snowing in the Catskills... I am headed up to Killington on sat morning and don't want the rain to take it all away. someone talk to me.

First of all, I doubt the rain will "take it all away". At least for now elevation is helping, and I'm hearing reports that it's still snow in the VT mountains at least. That can change, but it looks like any rain Killington gets will change back to snow. I think you'll be fine. Bases will be deep.

Not sure if this helps you draw a line on your map or not, but the New York City vicinity changed over from rain to snow about 7 am and it's still snowing.

With limited elevation reports, I'm checking around Twitter sites...Killington hanging onto heavy snow above 1000feet...suspect that level increases later this PM but summits may continue piling on. If it holds, I may have to adjust summit accumulations up a bit...but it's just gravy at this point.

Snowing hard in Canaan Valley, WV. None of that heavy chowdah parc. Can't believe every trip I've planned north this year has ended up with better conditions to the south - this coming weekend probably being the same way.

Unfortunately I'm in a hotel in the mid-west but radar on The Weather Channel looks like rain east of the NY state line and snow to the west. According to my wife it was snowing all day at my house in Jersey but I won't be there until Saturday unless I get stuck somewhere else.

All snow in this part of the Catskills (halfway btwn. Plattekill & Belleayre) Easily 3 ft. and still dumping. The temps. have dropped slightly (28.5) the past couple of hours creating a much lighter 4-6" on top. Race you to first chair.

I've never had the urge to head out to Platekill/Belleayre until reading this post. If I leave now, you'll probably still beat me to first chair.
