Are you going to Shelburne Falls tonight?

I think so. My 5 yo daughter (oy....6 in two weeks!) had an "I don't want to" reaction earlier this morning. I suspect that'll change.

So, the plan is to go. Are you heading in for it? Any other God's country folks coming in? Will be a lot better than last year's CAA from hell event. lol

Apparently, a little ice in the FIT area per co-worker. Interestingly enough, he said this occurred at lower elevation and in a very small area.

None here...higher up, warmer 36.9F

[moneypitmike]

You won't see much if any sun today..wet thru noonish

Holding to my sun call. 12:00-12:30 arrival.

First ice-coated firewood of the season. Thaw before stove, ftl.

Light rain

Here in Williamstown, Ma. for T-Day weekend.

Frozen precip fail last night.

Never happened like some of the forecasts showed.

Looking up at Mt Greylock, there's still much cloud cover, so I can't see if the trees have anything white/ shiny on them.

[Damage In Tolland]

Also heavy heavy fog all morning

[weatherMA]

LOL he's making a good argument for WOTY.

Pretty good temp gradient across CT this morning, where the warm front did just get through temperatures got into the lower 50's, this was mainly across southern CT. Here we were right around 40F and then into the 30's up in NE CT.

Anybody who will travel a couple hundred miles to see 3" of snow or set up a snow gun to blow snow into his bedroom (which I believe Pick would do - that's how he rolls) gets my vote everytime. Some people talk weenie, Pick lives it.

[ski MRG]

Ok, here's a little comic relief. Action starts around the 50 second mark. It's a guy thing.

Yeah, not sure what time b/c I'm working in Northampton for a bit but my wife Amy will be at the Arms Library doing the "Green Your Holidays" workshop - environmentally friendly gift wrapping etc.

Should be a nice night.
