  1. With ideal conditions i suspect Killington can perform the necessary snow making in 36 hours. I think the event has to check depths a week beforehand. We shall see!!!
  2. first flakes at Jay earlier today https://www.facebook.com/JayPeakResort/videos/1060214048367022
  3. Looks like Tropical storm Ampil (08W) is going to switch teams to baroclinic but has a chance to regenerate as well. No hard science on this, but in following the Atlantic Basin for swell production and keen eye on the continental westerlies for good winds, usually about 3 weeks after a recurving WPAC system is when I lean a bit into a good period of good winds and swells for SNE. The swell from Ernesto on Saturday was in the solid utility range (6 feet at 15 seconds) but very much compromised by local SE winds, resulting in very little attenuation as the swell hit the final kilometers of the nearshore zone. If we had sub-moderate NW winds on Saturday before dark, very likely we would have seen some significant breakers. Onward!
  4. Hopeful for a good season too! I have the epic northeast.
  5. smoke in northern New Hampshire rather thick, can't recall what fires are fueling this, but the morning was beautiful. It is still really nice outside, just lots of smoke haze.
  6. The road to my home in Berlin had serious damage and isn't possible to access my place. Going up after work on Thursday. Looks like 3.5 inches in 4 hours
  7. 53 in Berlin with a refreshing nw breeze
  8. Not the best, but a few shadow bands. I think being next to a frozen lake made it even more interesting
  9. Good stuff! I was also planning on Colebrook but upon arrival earlier than expected I ventured up to Pittsburg and landed at Lake Francis (and in doing so I now know there are 3 Connecticut Lakes!) I have a video, similar to my pictures, it isn't great, but will find a way to share it. The traffic getting through Colebrook was expected (1 hour or so) but the Errol backup wasn't expected and took about as long. All things considered, this is beautiful countryside so it was perfectly fine. Day 6 after the experience and still in awe
  10. Excellent before and during, these do the best job to show the darkness.
  11. It is going to be quite warm compared to the past few days! Here is a map for parking in colebrook. I'm going to feel very relaxed once I've parked.
  12. Heading to Colebrook which normally is 80 minutes but planning for 240 minutes travel time. They are planning for crowds and so many options, while awesome, come with lots of risk.
  13. What a storm! I drove up I-93 late afternoon Thursday and the snow on the trees was incredible, there was also no one on the road and made record time.
