My God, the potholes in Greenfield are beyond description. I’ve now seen two cars getting towed this week due to what must be damage from hitting a hole too hard.

Yep. My road was temporarily “fixed” last year with reclaimed milling.  It was ok for a while. The last 2 days have made it look like Beruit in the 1980s

Is your road unpaved? I come across unpaved roads in your area.

It was paved when they first built it in the late 1990s.  They didn’t do it right and it has been crumbling.  The town keeps pushing off the fix.  They did the millings last to try to keep it drivable for 2 years.  It is horrible now but it has been worse.  
 

supposed to be redone in 2026.

The rage and jealousy is unbecoming. As Pete would say flat landers in eastern Mass are the biggest whiners on the board. If I was PF ad NNE crew I would post 10 pictures a day just to piss you off. Lol I love your rage at something so out of your control.  Maybe that's it. A control issue ha

Nah, we advised 97-98” for depth.  We’ll see how NWS/NOAA interprets it.

Imagine, a ski resort wanting to preserve actual observations and not push for the highest possible totals lol.

This near 4,000ft…

At 3,000ft we are in the mid-70s for depth after 3” of dense snow today.

At Stowe we are all about the data points.  None of this guessing and estimating sh*t.  269” diligently measured at 3,000ft on the season.

We notice the rage and late season jealousy emerging on posts.

It’s still pretty impressive snow covering Greenfield. Big plow piles everywhere and almost 100% coverage. The 1.5” from this morning did not get complete washed away so at least the piles look prettier than they did.  Unfortunately my slushy driveway is going to freeze solid again tonight.

The irony is it’s not like historic snowfall or anything, it’s just a solid above normal season following numerous shitty years up here.

The issue is it’s also been shitty down in SNE for years and the gradient has been super sharp this season.

A lot of multi-year perception in play… up here happy that it’s finally out of the rut, but down there it’s the mentality of still in the rut.

Hopefully SNE breaks out next winter.

I’ve brought up Stowe in a few ski discussions. Maybe you saw them. Absolutely appreciate your approach vs the “Jay Cloud” BS.
