EastonSN+ Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Quote I think this winter is still a win considering how close many of us are to our yearly normal in snowfall - especially given the fact that this was a super el-nino. In fact, a lot of posts stated that the pattern looks good again in the LR. Many of us may still get above average in snowfall, would not take much. That being said - the latest guidance makes me feel for the interior folks who continue to suffer. Lets hope the models adjust a little to help them out with this storm.

But that's a whole different world than Vermont, New Hampshire and NY. If you ride from Ash to Portage to FT Kent its not real bad, But i would advise some ice scratchers as there is a lot of hard pack, They have had some snow up there this week, But its very thin on the east side towards CAR, The real problem has been lack of cold with water bars on the trails and thru the bogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is the model thread where we describe model solutions....at least when we can contain the rest of the off topic drivel. The Euro def went 1980s on us that run. That said, I get that you've been cliff-diving for the better part of 3 years...it's been a rough stretch there relative to the rest of the region.
