bobbutts Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Kind of off topic, but I know there are a lot of skiers here. Planning on skiing Monday. Any recommendations? Current plan is Ragged. Never skied there, but hear it's pretty good in the trees.... that is if there's enough cover. I'm guessing there shoud be enough by noon.. any help/recommendations appreciated. And Merry Christmas to all! Feels llike I got my Red Rider! Cannon already has snow so that's one to consider.. Day of the storm may be troublesome for winds at all resorts and given the current lack of snow, ropes are unlikely to drop right away during the storm.

DomNH Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I deleted my post, but yeah...I'm still a little concerned about it bombing too far south with time. Go measure your 2" of white grass. LOL, hopefully we benefit from better ratios due to less wind up here. Even if we can eek out 12:1 it'd be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Someone certainly has potential to see 15-20'' here...I would definitely lean towards areas that get the enhancement from the CF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 East coast heights are lower early NAM vs 6z NAM on the EC but too early to draw a conclusion, could simply be timing as it did adjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmfm Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Yea I like where we sit. Still think Attleboro maxes, slight nudge SE and/or wee bit colder always seems to work out in the last few hours after the initial push NW. SREFs look fantastic.

moneypitmike Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Mike. You are too low. I can always revise, but that's what I see now. Though I'm hearing from you, Steve and others I'm being conservative. My brother in Harvard's going to get creamed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 What stinks is that no stores are open today...will have to wake up real early and get the goods. I have butterflies in my stomach...this is unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbosch Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Every person I have told about this/mentioned we had a winter storm watch was like "huh?!"...epic fail. No one pays attention to weather right now. The way things are looking the 6-9 they're giving me would be fail, too. I'm feeling 9-12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 west coast heights around the dakotas lower vs the 6z NAM. east coast heights on the 540 just a hair lower/weaker. Timing differences or a shift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Things are smoothing out model wise, very tight cluster on a monster south of LI , with such tremendous inflow and crashing heights any mix should constitute minimal parts of the storm. Look for as HM said internal gravity waves, tremendous CsI banding. I might not be good at predicting ahead too far but my review of the dynamics this AM tells me this has the potential to be a top ten impact. As Is usual some areas will get some downslope drying issues but all share in 'The Christmas Miracle Storm of 2010' today in between egg Nog and food I will be checking the CSI/ Gravity wave potential, mesomodel time. Good time for all to pull the trigger and let all loved ones know this is real and they are spectacular. Ok Scott, you say it, time for you to give us some numbers snow wise. Man o man. Messenger waiting , you threw out numbers yesterday all day, waiting for update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 by 24 appears to be just sublte timing differences. With more energy coming down back than even earlier runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbosch Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Why is any of that an epic fail? Because they have handled the event poorly and it will surprise a great many people during one of the busiest travel times of the year. Discounting all of the runs yesterday was silly. Many of the mets here knew it, or that they should at least be paid attention to and not tossed in the garbage. If this verifies...ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
