HoarfrostHubb Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Skin? WTF is that - hiking naked? I was really referring to groomed mountains, and trying to get freak to tell me that he and his buddies break into the control building and start up the lifts when no one is around.

Damage In Tolland Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 You know we're setting us up for a late season snow with these insane + departure in temps over the next week. You just know it. I highly doubt it. Chances are prob 1 in a 100. But if it does happen let's wait until the trees are leafed out to mazimize damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Do you do solar wx as well for your buddies in the planes? When it gets to a certain level like now, we have to warn them. Mostly for radiation and communication problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Miser Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Lol What is he doing to his skis? All my years of skiing, I never heard the term "skin" used. I guess that means I was not "extreme". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never done it. Hardcore people (can't think of any...) do it. You attach a stretchy material that prevents backsliding and you chuff your way up the trail like a x-c skier. Not sure if it can be done with regular boots/bindings, though. I think you need the AT rigs (all-terrain?) like Petey uses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Lundberg says it's time for the summer haircut for MRG No matter how you slice it, there's a lot of warm air flooding the country right now, and despite the brief cool down late this week into the start of the weekend, it's the proverbial oasis of cold in that vast ocean of warmth. Spring is here, and it is here to stay. Next week we could be looking at widespread 70s during the second half of the week from the Plains to the East. Not bad approaching St. Patrick's Day!

Typhoon Tip Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yeah +12C at 850 near the southern tip of Hudson Bay. It will be interesting to see how far east this makes it. It's not very easy for those warm plumes to climb the ridge and head east this time of year. However, even a seabreeze this time of year isn't all that bad, so long as the wind is under 10-15 kts. Tell me about it! D7 Euro at 18C over Nebraska at 850mb... before March 15!! I remember 1998 ... up at UML. March 29, 30 and 31: 89, 91, and 90F where the highs those three days in the Merrimack Valley. Incredible backdoor came slicing down in the evening of the 31st and knocked it back 30F in 10 minutes ...someodd ludicrousness, then the next day at noon, April 1, the cruel Fool's joke of it being 48 and drizzly set in. I think it even snowed in April that year, too - smack in the face flakes, only, though. Anyway, if there were ever a year that is a candidate for a wack-job March run-in with heat, this would seemingly be uniquely qualified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need the AT rigs (all-terrain?) like Petey uses In pre-synthetics days (often pre-lift days as well), hardcore skiers used sealskin covers for climbing. They had the old beartrp cable bindings, the ones that released at the knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Any guess which reporting station Pete will choose when telling us how cool it was in GC today? The Charlemont Fire station is the coolest in the Berkshires ATTM. It also looks like my station is having some solar heating issues. I'm the warmest station around!
