Expand I felt the need to wear zubaz last week as well, so I did. Best thing I've ever bought on the internet. side note, Montage is doing a ton more business in the event realm now. Wine Fest, Beer fest, yoga things, the water park, etc. Plus the concert venue. I don't see it exploding in terms of a cash cow, but they are definitely paying the bills now.

Sent from my Life Max using Tapatalk Expand National weather service has a low tonight of 24 for Allentown and it’s not even 40 right now. Right when it goes dark temperatures plummet and the snowmaking cannons will fire. There is no trusted source concerning info for Blue mountain. It’s all based on intuition. Toast i asked on Facebook for them to reposition the vista camara. Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 14, 2018 Report Posted November 14, 2018 Wow just wow I haven’t said inversion in like 8 months. Must be almost ski season. 1 Quote

Sent from my Life Max using Tapatalk Expand Humidity is 44% in Allentown now and 56% at mount pocono. I’m guessing the guns start firing around 7pm. Your 31 degree temperature confirms that blues temperature is about the average of allentown and mount pocono which are at 36 and 27 degrees respectively Edited November 14, 2018 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote
