To be fair no one has stated a real opinion on the temperatures when they mention increasing sun angle.  There’s too much association going on in posts about increasing solar and warm season.

The sun angle can be increasing and it can still be deep winter.  I don’t get why folks fight the sun angle discussion, in the descent or ascent.  Like it is what it is.

Everyone knows climo, the best snow often comes on increasing solar.  Why would folks fight those increasing sun angle posts?

It’s great to see more sunlight daily.  It’s also moving into mid-winter snow climo. It doesn’t have to be dark to snow.  Climate norms don’t line up with the solar calendar.

I agree with FXWX…it’s tiresome and dumb. Most of us know the climo, and the whole sun angle stuff.  I don’t think anybody has an issue with gaining some daylight…but there isn’t any nape or tanning or anything like that on 1/11.  And Agreed, The best snows and cold come in mid and late January through Feb; with increasing sun angle and length.

One can certainly tan the nape at decently below average temperatures deep into the spring, though likely not going on currently. Sun angle and temperatures aren’t collocated… don’t associate the sun with a negative connotation, the inches of climo don’t care.

Yes, agreed in the spring.

True. But inches of retention care bigly. Stuff was melting off yesterday that normally wouldn't happen on say December 19. 

My grandmother, mother, and aunts would always say after July 4 summer is basically over. Yes the peak heat is coming, but the back to school stuff starts to come out, the day light is less .....and if you've been stuck in misery mist and clouds until July 4, well you just missed half the summer. The clock doesn't lie. It's like watching only the best part of the movie. Why bother watching the start, when the best is yet to come?

It isn’t like that was a slab of cement.  It was basically fluff.

This overrunning system is thread the needle for sure. Not that anyone has, but I wouldn’t hang your hat on anything.

Just consider everything a thread the needle situation…because it is when you’re looking for snow.

All 3 ensemble suites show positive snow depth change for the Sunday night- Tuesday waves. With EPS and GEPS with the most 

You’re gonna want to be west of the CT river for these, or up at Winne latitude in the east. Plenty of room to cut per the ensembles. 
 

I’m expecting rain imby.

Well, came to Okemo and Bromley this weekend and I have to say was pleasantly surprised. Actually hit some glades - though cover to thin to spend the day in the trees as the roots and stumps were ski grabbing. See snowmobile trails active. That being said there was brown tundra all the way into VT - well into VT in fact so it seems snow cover here is altitude based. Good snow here in Landgrove - probably 8 to 10 inches of powder (granted this time of year should be double or triple that) and real winter feel. Come ski!!! It's good!!!!
