I would never last for NHN. Had our woodstove going all day for several weeks now. Tomorrow’s forecast…chilly 

Do you have regular heat?

[Mixilplix]

NHN might be coming to an end if predicted temps hold true...

Yes but prefer the wood stove. My husband always cuts a lot of wood so why not.

Thats badass…my parents had a real fireplace in the house I grew up in and now they have one of those they turn on with a remote control.

In his defense he sleeps in the woods, in freezing temps night after night while backpacking through the Adirondacks. Im actually surprised he turned it on lol

Nice.  Even Accuweather is jumping on board for some accumulation.  

It will be nice to see some snow, but we can take bets as to what time Saturday it will all be gone.  

If you like or trust long range stuff, some models have something similar for Black Friday.  i would rather just have some good old cold temps at this point, but maybe this is the pattern change.

Your kids might get off school tomorrow

Nice trend here, but would be nice if it caught a little tailwind moving across the country and got here a day or so earlier (assuming it holds). Not sure that Tue, Wed, Thu night forecast will be enough for a Friday opening, especially if the lows are only for a couple hour window. Fri/Sat temps looking especially nice. Thanksgiving Sunday opening? lol

Are you going to come to MacAdoodle and ski the Perder? I'll probably go to the mall and ski in Jersey on Root Friday. Maybe I'll even see @DiMethere and maybe even @Enjoralescousin

Anyone have any low tide no base places to skin and ski in the Poconos? 
 

My regular places need a good 14-16 without a base.

a lot of the slopes at Frost are kind of golf course like.  except east mountain.  but if its heavy wet snow you aint going anywhere on those slopes.  I dont think big boulder trail (or whatever they renamed it to) at BB is a rocky mess either, and has decent pitch.

Tomorrow?  You just might see me there.  After all it is the happiest place on earth when the mountains are closed from the snow to the apres 😇

Standard snow measurement device - bbq grill. 

mike, i have really big plans tomorrow which include replacing the water filter and mouse baits in the crawlspace, but i could probably see if i can move some stuff around to squeeze in some snow time. 
i will let you know whats up there when i get up there later this afternoon.
