moneypitmike Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Becket Happy happy Mike! Hopefully, they'll have some snow. I just drove past the Beast. Saw a few folks there, but it was a sorry look for late December. Their site says 35% open (beginner trails essentially). Alas. 29.2/22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their site says 35% open (beginner trails essentially). Alas. 29.2/22 Nah its all rain, but thats ok, just two days of pure relaxation, sucks there is no snow for the kids on the ground but thats life. Im sure the local ski areas will be ok, tough weekend for them with no new natural snow and temps to warm to blow any, but looks by monday pm they will be back in business. Should be a great new years at the cabin, i hope yours is as well Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 WaWa now at 50% open. 32.0F/26 after a high of 36.8F Went to the movies in ORH. Holy crap are prices high there ($8.25 for a matinee?) Wow when the hell did it go to 8.25 for matinee? I wonder if the prices are jacked because its school vacation. Last time I went it was 6.50 for matinee. But admittedly that might have been 18-20 months ago...still seems like a steep hike though for that amount of time. Surprised you hit nearly 37...ORH airport's high was only 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 We went to the big Showcase one. Kids were 7.75 With snacks it was $55 31.2F now but that should climb later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy crap are prices high there ($8.25 for a matinee?) I took my daughter to see Cars 2 a couple months back at the matinee. The difference between her price and mine was .25!! What a bargain.

moneypitmike Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I've had a couple minor measurements in December and a whole mess of traces (most recently today). But, so far Roctober has been the savior-in-advance of this winter. It has to change sooner or later. Mild now, though. 31.7/22. OT--curious to learn of what people may have experienced for costs to install a septic system and to drill a well. Rather than responding here and sending this thread down the crapper (pun intended), if you'd like to pm me, that would be great. TIA. Bump my question Back to torchland, although my temp is only 37 right now with a north wind. How was NH? Was that work related or just R and R? 29.1/24 here at the Pit.

Mr Torchey Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 34 degrees have had some clear skies and temps have dropped nicely, very light east wind normally this would be a recipe for black ice but I suppose we will start to rise soon as WAA on south winds take over soon.

S&P Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 43/41 high of 52. warmed up quickly this morning with wind off the warm waters around my locale beautiful day, played 18, local courses not very bullish on winter. one advertising they are open all winter long in the local paper. another (the one i played) actually cut their fairways this AM and dressed up their greens with something that looked like green sand (not sure if they were trying to overseed). they even aerated some damaged areas. getting an early start on spring?

Damage In Tolland Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Fitting end to the year with the rain today. I ran 13 miles this morning ..the last 6 were in drenching cold rain. Wettest year ever should only end with rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wettest year ever should only end with rain Nothing drenching here. We've picked up .01", but enough to make it pretty slick at 30.5/29. I'm sure with the minimal solar energy making it through the clouds it will melt in no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 The town sander just drove by. Mark hasn't been that busy this winter...... 30.7/30 Edit: just went outside--it's a skating rink out there! I had posted the freezing rain on a spotter report, but BOX hasn't made any reference to it. Kind of suprised they haven't put up an sps or something.

Logan11 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Just think ...we were below freeizng for almost three days. One day didn't get above the low 20s. Then we warm up just enough to get FZRA to RN. Next week we will be bitter cold and dry for several days, only to warm up and rain again next weekend according to models. It really is an insult.

Hah.... It is. That VT snow trails update page that was posted yesterday was really sobering. I think the three days of sub-freezing may hold onto the zr a little longer than the 2m temps might suggest. Frankly, I'd rather the have just rn so I can drive without extra caution. warming a bit--31.1/30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
