It’s really quite hilarious that +20 not continuing indefinitely represents a pattern shift. Those are odds for chimps. Get it?

Your non-weather nerd friends—whoever that may be—must really hate this aspect of your personality. For all intents and purposes this above metric of being right turned out to be meaningless for everyone, including the major resorts. Breton woods looks like the most depressing place on earth right now. Well done. Taking the world down with your clown forecasts.
 

 

 

It’s not just that +20 didn’t continue, we reversed the departures and were below normal for the better part of 2 weeks. I’m not sure how Bretton Woods not being buried by the end of November is relevant to the discussion outside of ski enthusiasts who were planning a trip for 11/28-30 when we warmed back up.
 

There were already plenty of ski resorts opening during that pattern shift posted in the ski thread so they took advantage for sure. 
 

Let’s not play the anecdotal game where any of us can write a narrative. Sticking to empirical metrics, the pattern was very different on a large scale than the beginning of the month. The numbers are what they are.

See here’s the difference… prior to the pattern change, no ski resort could even think about making snow.  If the pattern didn’t change, ski areas would still be closed.  That is a fact.

But they are open.  Why?  Because it got cold enough to make snow.  Places made snow for a good 10-12 days after not being able to make snow the first half of the month.  That is a change.  It wasn’t meaningless, places opened for skiing and riding.  Had natural snow to boot.

Sure, it still rains but good grief a one day snapshot of Bretton Woods looking depressing is a sign the pattern didn’t change?

Nothing changed. All-time record highs and we still aren’t skiing.

recent pics?

During the pattern change. I know no one wants to hear it but we had snow cover down in the valley for almost two weeks during the pattern change that never happened.

Today was freezing rain upper mountain with 80mph gusts and a very cold rain down low.

If there was no change, it would still be November 2006 with no ski areas operating right now.
