You guys need it!! .

F yeah…we have the gfs with a season saver and the cmc with a season ender. .

Was euro as bad as cmc for up here at 12z?? Id take that gfs thump, showers, back end but I don’t know how I feel about trusting gfs 6 days out this winter. .

Pray the cmc doesn’t hold up..the “shut ‘‘em down” quote gets thrown around a lot, but that depiction might actually shut some down. I don’t know how you even recover from 5” of rain and plus 15 temps. Thank god it’s 6 days away, but that might lead to historically bad ski conditions in Vermont. Gfs on the other hand, would be a nice gain up here. .

Someone pointed out that there's only one winter with a lower depth at the Mansfield stake currently and the Euro said "hold my beer"

I saw that..it’s bad. And 83 didn’t exactly turn around to anything great until April. I was looking through pictures from the past several seasons around this time and it really set in. We are literally struggling just to keep the ground white right now. I think we’ll upslope our way to some moderate snow over the next 7 days, but the woods are like starting from scratch here. Going to need a lot of work. I know it can change fast, so I’m hoping. I have one hand on the door handle of the panic room ready to walk in and introduce myself. .

Days and days of rain in northern f’n Vermont. Can’t make this up. .

Nothing to see here..just a 256 spot over Tahoe in the next 2 weeks. Guess that’s where our snow is. .

Yeah, you've been on this so I wasn't trying to argue some epic pattern...just pointing out to him that red anomalies aren't the kiss of death, especially for NNE, where mid Atlantic and especially NC, it's game over. But yeah, when I see bare ground in Jay Vt. in January, it doesn't scream epic. About as bad as it can get skiing wise right now. I'm still optimistic that it being this active, the odds will play out up here.

Trending the wrong way up here, but maybe we do ok on the upslope. .

Can’t wait to hear reports from there. .

https://snowbrains.com/palisades-tahoe-ca-sets-record-for-most-snow-in-12-hour-period/ 32” in 24 hours…not bad They are on my list when I’m out there in a few weeks. .

Green, blue, black..it doesn’t matter. I’m sure it’s going to feel awesome to be back out there and spend the time with your kid. Nothing better to me. Good luck! .

He’s obnoxious because it appears he actually has some weather knowledge, but only lives for the trolling high of the response…and isn’t humorous or enjoyable like some others. .

Strongly disagree… Who is saying “I would go there for 10, but not for 7”. It was a generous number, no argument. They do their snow totals in a range and always add with the higher number, which skews higher..no argument. But I’m there and I can tell you it snowed fluffy, white, fake snow for three days, which was well over a foot and I haven’t seen it disappear as fast as it did in 72 hours in several years (except maybe that 2020 grinch). I wrote on here Thursday afternoon that the writing was on the wall. Weds was excellent skiing with fresh powder all over the woods. By Thursday, you could see it going bad, and by Friday, it was like it never happened. First picture is end of day Thursday. It was already going fast at this point. Second is 48 hours later. Natural trails are gone. .

Rubber band..it’ll bounce back. It’s northern Vermont, right. We still have plenty of epic days ahead this winter. Just amazed at what not dropping below freezing for three straight days can do to the pack. .

Tahoe in 3 weeks..I’ve heard great conditions in jan aren’t guaranteed, but looking sweet right now .

Almost a complete loss of pack. Crazy for Jan 1 at 1900’ in northern Vermont. At least it’s snowing. .

No doubt they will take a hit too..but killington has the most snowmaking trails open, which is all that is left in Vermont. They also have the most snowmaking fire power in Vermont and the ability to take advantage of even short windows, where some other resorts won’t blow for just 6-8 hours. Until the next big natural dump, I think they’ll recover best. This is bad though; it’s a complete rebuild in some areas. .

Feel better dude. I had it the exact same time last year. Flu symptoms and fever were 3-4 days and then I was better, but was tired and didn’t have full strength to really workout or push it skiing for a good two weeks. I have to admit though, you have some impressive timing to wait til this shit weather stretch to get it out of the way. .

I agree…Killington will own skiing for the next ten days! This is when they can shine. .

50 plus trails , to 18 snowmaking only in 48 hours. I know not record breaking or anything, but an impressive melt. Still have a pack, but wonder if that survives .

49 degrees at 6pm on Dec 30th…what a torch. .

Warmth over-performed. Destroyed anything natural. Can still duck into some woods if you don’t mind destroying your skis, but this was a death blow for a while. Snowmaking trails are great tho; nice and soft. But with no snowmaking except some short windows for a week, huge setback. I underestimated Holiday traffic and no refreeze at night. Thought we might limp through with mid 30s for highs, but no dice. .

They blew goat, which is in good shape and northway. Lower quai is man made too. Ullrs is still natural and the entrance is VERY thin. Some deep pockets on the side, but all bumped and very thin in the middle.
