Winter Storm Watch

[moe ghoul]

hey moe, you think any of the bike trails will be skiable? what else aside from wissahickon ski club would be a good spot for me to hit up after work monday night?

 

The trails along the hills might be a little bony unless the snow can get through the trees, I'll prolly check it out later today, only got about 2" down right now. If your talking about alpine skiing, good look, XC may be more doable. Wissahickon is private property and posted, FYI. At least that's the official line and if you go there and members are there, not sure if they'll let you ski or not. If you wanna poach on my little hill to skiers right of the lodge, be my guest.

No snow yet here in the A...depoint way to low but snowing in Pottstown, Reading and Lansdale...only a matter of time before the flakes start flying..

 

Keep posting up for the Blue area, PASR's, us flatlanders want to know what's going on thru the nite. Hope you guys get some of this, its a big waste around here.

Anybody have a visual on NYC? I was supposed to fly Denver to Philly, but my Philly flight got cancelled. Picked up a flight into Laguardia that lands at 10pm. How's it looking up that way?

[moe ghoul]

Serious puke mode here just ran the blower over the driveway and its already covered with at least an inch.

[JFskiDan]

[DiMe]

We're getting close to 2" in Stroudsburg and still falling.

12 inches in my driveway in Philly. Of course when it actually snow's it's useless as fuck and the grunt of the storm misses anything that might resemble something we can slide down.

At least a foot so far, snow pile on my deck table looks closer to 15-16".

I've got about 6" with 10" drifts. Waxed the Jet Fuels for tomorrow.

i left the mtn at about 830 and there was about 5 inches on my car. the sides of lazy and main street were pretty fun. tomorrow morning should be a lot of fun. i wish there was an anything goes policy as far as trail boundaries like frost. i bet some of the MTB trails would be ride-able tomorrow.

10"+ inches here in Dirty Jersey, just took a ~10 mile drive to drop my girlfriend off at home and lots of it was unplowed. Seriously enjoyed my Subaru, had no issues even in the parts that were deeper than my ground clearance.

 

It's really dry snow, it will not pack at all.

 

I'm not riding tomorrow, but I am Monday. I was thinking do Camelback now and JFBB during Christmas week because it has fewer crowds, but the trees at JF are probably going to be the best spot in PA tomorrow. With this wind, I doubt much snow will stay on top of the trails they made snow on because it is higher than the surrounding area. It is whipping right now.

 

I'm thinking of getting some turns in at the local golf course tomorrow AM, 15"+ by the morning I'm sure and the sledders won't be out for a while. It has about as much vert as Freedom Park but steeper (isn't everything?). We'll see if I can get the crew together.
