Seriously, WTF is with this Weather?

[RidgeRacer]

Ride likes to talk about jet streams etc. One look into Ridge Racers crystal ball reveals that we will have freedom park, boulder park and love Park for thanksgiving weekend. You're in luck my friend. Enjoy.

Rides great. I wanted to leave with my family from thanksgiving dinner in the Princeton area and head to the pokes. Ski fri and sat and head home sat night. If I go north it would be without the family. I don't care about cost. Spending money on fun is always worth it.

I like your reports because they are optimistic. Can you give me a Sugarbush Thanksgiving report?

I'm really kicking myself for not going this past week Mon-Wed. However, I'm leaving tomorrow for a couple days up there to oversee some things at the condo. I'll be getting some days in at K-Mart, but trail count took a big hit with 1.5 inches of rain and 3 days of 50 plus. Hopefully they can make snow tonight through Tuesday morning, so hopefully they can rebound quickly. As usual, a trip report with pics will likely occur.

32 in the notch this morning, snow last nite for about an inch coating at the house.

I'm up in the Sugarbush area right now. I stopped at K-Mart before I hopped on 100 N to see if they were making snow t2b yet. It was a balmy 24 degrees at the base of the K1 Gondola. I could hear muffled snowmaking, but no guns anywhere near the base.

 

Came up to the Bush, grabbed my board and boots from the condo, and then went over to the base. I could hear snowmaking from the condo, but it was much louder than Killington's, which means it should be lower on the mountain unless the acoustics are different. There was no snowmaking at the base there either, but they were moving a groomer around in the bully yard. It was also 24 degrees at the base there also.

 

I'll have a KMart trip report tomorrow.

Shawnee made snow this morning.

[RidgeRacer]

Are they testing new guns? They'll be in the 60's on Wednesday and Thursday

[poconoceancity]

Testing a new snow making system.

[toast21602]

Awesome to see them blow some white. Even if it's just a test.

Yugo, HUGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[guitar73]

not liking this trend that i am seeing....flucation of mild and cool. it needs to be getting cold and staying, stat!

[moe ghoul]

We go thru this November ritual every year, its all part of the angst, fear, anticipation, and manic emotional swings that follow the temperature up and down.

 

I haven't even set up the Moeghoul Dope-ler weather station yet.

haha i love it. I'll have to set up some sort of device in the back this year as well. maybe some live video reporting.

[Ride Delaware ?]

It's raining up here in the MRV right now, but temps are supposed to plummet by the end of the afternoon. Looks pretty cold next week. I would imagine t2b at KMart. My inside sources at SR tell me they have a really good shot at t2b on Saturday. They blew a good amount during the last cold snap, so they've got a good head start.

[poconoceancity]

What does everyone think about the storm next week?

If it snows, stoke levels will be even higher. If it rains, it will top off snowmaking ponds.
