Your skis ready yet Quinn?
Don't look now, but lots of potential you could be writing your first ski entry by this time next week buddy.
"My take is that this will be significant, through progressive, storm. The European is going bonkers with it, developing a storm strong enough for gales and heavy rains from NJ through New England with the threat of a tree snapping snow above 1500 feet in the mountains from ne Pa to New England."

all over it buddy.
12+" depicted on the models for northern vt mtns currently
yep. 1800'+ and western slopes are looking prime. BIG east winds on the way. i've got refresher this weekend. may have to duck out of the CPR portion tomorrow afternoon.
NWS Albany just posted this for Southern VT at 2000'+:
"THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF 7 INCHES OR
GREATER WITHIN THE WATCH AREA. THE WEIGHT OF WET SNOW MAY BRING
DOWN TREE LIMBS...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WHERE LEAVES REMAIN. THIS
MAY RESULT IN SOME POWER OUTAGES"
Lucky for us...we don't have any leaves left down here, besides oak trees :)
4 months off from skiing is long enough! here's to another 8 month NE ski season. WOOT!!!!!!
unfortunately said this at about this time last year and we ended up having that crazy warm November...but definitely feeling a lot like a good early start to the season is in the works, one we haven't seen since '02-'03 when most mtns were nearly 100% operational by Turkey Day.
Looks like another shot at some decent snows next week and longer range shows NE staying cool, wet/potentially snowy. Hoping for a cold La Nina...seems to be the typically setup for NE blockbuster years.
How did that storm pan out? I love your optimism fellas... Looking forward to a great first full year of Wasatch powder exploration. Our spare bedroom welcomes you at any time.
5" reported by a buddy atop Killington at 2:00. Snow levels were below base level at Killington but not really accumulated until above 2,000ft. Rare snow event:
"Snow levels across Vermont during the midday Friday ranged from near 2,000 feet in the south to 3,000 feet in the north," according to Dale Mohler, expert senior meteorologist."
14" at Killington, 8" at Jay...not a bad mid-October storm I'd say. Clipper coming through next week could lay down a couple more inches.
went skiing. it was fun.
