How far south do your draw your CNE line?  CON? ASH?

I see MHT as northern CNE and CON as lower NNE.  I think the western half of Mass is CNE, and over to Ray and then the NH coast.  It is inexact and hopefully we don't have a long discussion about this in the thread.

It's so stupid. Everyone says get a pass....but then when you factor in life, sports etc,,....who has the time to take advantage of going enough so that it's worth it. Eff up north. Better off sticking local if you can. 

I miss the liftopia days where I could get a 2 day pass to Sunday river for like 90-100 bucks. Now you can’t even get a 1 day pass for that. Cost has gotten insane unless you live close enough for a season pass. 
 

Im still going to try and get my boys on skis before winter ends (hopefully in a couple of weekends) but I cringe at the prices now. I think Killington still has kids under 12 ski free if you get a multi-day pass for an adult but not 100% sure. They did fairly recently at least.

That’s what frustrates me so much with winters now. We would never engage in the Olympic level mental gymnastics in any other season. Not for severe, not for tropical, not for temperature & dews discussion.

I’m not saying that people can’t be optimistic, and anyone who has been around here long enough knows that I’m right with the positive/grateful for what I got crew most of the time—but we gotta be able to call it like we see it without all this buck up there’s still time stuff. I may have been early on the call (and let the record eternally show that if I’m canceling winter we’re really done), but we HAVE to face what’s in front of us. This season has not, is not, and will not be it. Not down here in the hinterlands. 

And if you need help understanding it, I have an avatar for that. 

I think you're mistaking some of us not calling it a rat for just understanding that it happens and say "I don't give a fucc, I'll be back next season" It just makes me laugh at the over reaction and emotionalism to a "bad" winter... Some of us have been through this before and know it happens and the WAAA WAAA WAA gets old

I don't see a straight cutter with that 12z GFS run, I see a secondary reflection and a transfer along the Maine coast that develops late but then takes over in DE Maine.

It’s close to a straight cutter. Still enough CAD to make it a mess but one more tick and we’re just about there…you tick it a little stronger and the secondary reflection will mostly disappear and just show up as kinks in the isobars from CAD. 
 

There’s going to be CAD regardless…that happens in straight cutters frequently. Just a matter if we actually get a secondary coastal or not. If we do, then it will hold in the cold at the sfc much better. If not, lots of in-situ CAD but many will warm up to 33-35F rain even if they don’t warm sector cleanly.

I consider anything that preserves the pack to be frozen.  This probably included freezing rain as long as it isn't too heavy.?

That’s fine. It’s just that technically ZR is liquid precip so I wanted to see how he defines it before we debate model interpretation. ;)

EPIC next Wednesday + Thursday just stalls and bombs inside BM - why can't we just lock that in and go home.. 

I like the fact that it keeps popping up. I feel like we see these things out there in time, they disappear and never come back. Also, shove that PV further west instead of bullying everything SE. Just not too much or it will be a repeat of thus week.
