wow just wow the vis today.

ok 12/5 - Arrived at like 6PM. Ski bag zipper mostly frozen shut but got it opened enough so that i could wrangle them out one by one, jerry tier mistake. Ghost town. Did some runs. Left. Main highlight was finding out omw back that the only biz open on my way there will make me a hoagie starting at 5:30AM.

Anyone going up tonight?

yah i know what it means pen day ho

lo-que-dijo.jpg or is this not the right place for that meme?

sounds magical

i want to say yes but prob not, at least not in AM. 😢

i couldn't agree with you more.

yuge upgrades between 1pm and 3pm from NWS- bust out the shovels in malvern.

Ahhhhhhhh

Anything untreated here was icy by the time I got back. Roads were all treated tho. Pretty sure I'm going to ditch work tomorrow and will be at the true mountain instead.

I'm right at the bottom of the purple.

huge jump up from last afternoon (4" in monroe and much less below the carbon line). usually they update this product around 8am and 4pm daily so i'll be checking it in the AM for sure. I've found it to be the most accurate reporting for my area over the last couple of years and i don't think i've met anyone who knows that it exists. i'm really looking forward to my day off of work on monday -- https://www.weather.gov/phi/winter

tried that once. didn't work too well. our vet said to don't even bother washing the dog, unless it gets skunked or something...

I'll be in delco for the holiday fml. hoping to get in some night skiing on Fri when i return. Otherwise I'll need to wait until Sat. also, mark your calendars. 12" snow on evening of dec 16. I know this because I have to go into the office Mon/Tues outside PHL and that's my luck.

Nice meeting you all. I'll echo others about suboptimal conditions, was good to get out tho.

They're closed tho. Mad props for doing so much running. I'd prob die mile 1

blue mt officially closed sun per FB

im glad i wasn't the only one who felt that way.

thanks champ, that was the info i was looking for.

thanks, that makes sense, didn't think about it. i'm still learning what to expect i guess. maybe sat night it stays (mostly) frozen precip. any idea how late it would be (ex sat AM/sat PM/ Sun AM) before they pull the plug?

i'm good with 9. gives me time to get to the recycling center omw there. otherwise i'd miss your super tailgate.

should i trust 'Kathi'

is this 'if' really a possibility?

I think they'll stay. JT says it will be in talks with them about the tax in future years. unfortunately for JT, the railway knows that it has huge impact on the economy there and they will never, ever pay that tax. good for the railway for telling JT to get fucked. its a beautiful story of business vs bullying govt where the underdog won.
