Heartbreak

18z Euro ens very amped and near Boston. Reeling me back in. Lol

Oh boy. Now my heart rate is racing. Come on Buffalo!!!!

Beginning of February looks to be rough for snow lovers.

A micro-climate day in Monroe County. 3” in Webster, 2” in Irondequoit and 1/2” in Pittsford

Another step like that and we’d be in business!

Beat me to it.

Looking more and more like this cold spell breaks right at the beginning of February. Could be an epic thaw. I know one person who’ll be jumping for joy and shaving his legs.

That little blip over Monroe county is the airport measuring site. Lol

That’s what I noticed. On the runs yesterday the ridge started losing its steepness.

Gorgeous!

That was relative to the other towns in your region. Yes, 120” is a lot of snow- unless the towns to your N,S,W and E get twice that.

This is why you guys love the clipper train. Here in the ROC we’re getting the same old downslope game. 1/2” so far. Pittsford to be specific. For us to win these little pieces of energy need to go over PA.

You need strong west wind. Lowville just doesn’t get much snow. Bet Turin gets it.

We should figure a way to monetize all our weather knowledge. Hedge funds make all kinds of cash working from small advantages played on the margins of different industries. I’d bet there’d be a way to make big $ in a couple key industries just by understanding long term weather and moving quickly to capitalize upon it. Commodities futures are the obvious play but I wonder if there aren’t other sectors that turn on this. I’m sure some of you remember the story about the meteorologists that bought oranges just prior to a big Florida freeze and made a killing!

I don’t know what the LR holds but my buddy just sent me this:

Once again, OP and GEFS looks totally different for next weekend.

-15 in Pittsford last night according to my Mom’s digital thermometer. Holy crap!

12z EURO still has a storm and it clicked west a bit. Still looks like a miss. ENS from 0z has several members being hits. But majority are misses. It is a watcher though

Stowe and Sugarbush. First weekend of February. The long range definitely gives me pause but we’re locked in. We chose N VT because we had a disastrous trip to Killington a few years ago (weather wise). I also have a trip planned to Holiday Valley for a music festival March 19-20. It’s a Grateful Dead cover band called Darkstar Orchestra. Skiing, music and drugs? Yes please! Where out west do you want to go?

Ski trip. Lock it in.

This is not how it works…this isn’t how any of this works.

Boooo

Just bundle up. It makes all the difference. I look like Nanook of the North every time I walk the dogs.
