Haha, yeah we may not have any spring skiing this season... we're closing April 17th regardless of the fact that we'll be 100% open with a 3-9 foot natural base.

I love Sugarloaf... I think Mansfield is a pretty asthetically pleasing mountain, but Sugarloaf is like the end-all of sweet looking mountains. It was just begging for someone to put a ski area on it.

Nothing like a first time visitor coming around omg corner and seeing this:

The original plan in the 50's was to develop the Bigelow range across the valley from Sugarloaf. They wanted to build "the Aspen of the East"

The state of Maine and all of the woodsman, hunters and environmentalists said no way!

Everything else east and colder and yet the NAM seems to be right according to some lol???

What will you do when the GFS ticks colder again? No jumping back on board

I didn't say the NAM was right just say it sucked. I think 3-5 for you is reasonable. I think the area of heaviest snow will be NW of HFD in CT not NE.

I cannot believe how the axis of heavy has shifted SE on NAM. Ruh roh...

Would this shift the heavy snow on top of us here in Portland? I took a look at the 12Z nam, 36 hr to precip and there is big 'ole purple spot (2" qpf) on top of us, however I dont understand how to read the other maps wells enough to know if that is going to be snow/mix or rain.

It still has the H7 low cutting off over NNJ/NYC..there will probably be a warm layer btwn 800-700 millibars.

Yeah that's what's going to suck for many of us.

NAM has 850s below 0c almost the entire time in HFD but is just about all rain with some really warm layers in there.

I expect nothing down here really just a mix tonight if precip comes down hard enough, but flakes are in the air right now! Must cherish every last one...........

For you? You're going 5-9 but expecting the low end of that range?

I think with you elevation 3-5 is a good call. I'm not really expecting much of anything here. 1-3 if we're lucky.

I have the higher numbers in case things go like the Euro and Euro ens...I could easily see it it just ripping heavy snow with 1-2 inches per hour for a time. For now will lean on around half a fot

Euro to be honest isn't like a 12" storm for you. It's probably 8" or so and it's the coldest/snowiest piece of guidance I've seen.

We basically need the southern shortwave stronger to wrap up the low sooner...but at the same time have the energy in the backside of the trough allow the low to push east. It's a precarious situation. East and weaker doesn't really cut it as is evident in the NAM solution.

Exactly. Been saying this for 48 hours. It needs to be perfect.

Well depicted on FOUS.

Particularly here:

BOS 12Z tomorrow. Prior to that it's an isothermal bomb and this is even close.

When did i ever say it was 12 inches? Will said it was 10 for my area.

5-9 is a good range and allows for wiggle room

I was just saying I didn't say you said it.

I disagree with Will that the Euro is 10" for you. I think you flip to rain or sleet for a while on the Euro and you miss the comma head snows to the west.

He also said I did indeed taint around hour 30 on the euro..but still came in with 10 inches.

5-9 is my call. Unlss the Euro changes drastically today. if it doesn't..That's my final call
