Ski Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 They are already canceling tonight's school events and a day off tomorrow is almost guaranteed...if the timing is right, this might be one of those crazy nights to be stranded at a local ski area. I'm gettin' psyched about tonight. Quote

Timeless Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 (edited) Accuweather.com is now putting the Poconos in the 3-6 inch accumulation band. As of 11:00AM it's already snowing in Harrisburg and snow should begin here in the A between 1:00PM and 2:00PM. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it, I'm about to lose control and I think I like it...woo hoo Tomorrows forecast "here comes the rain again, falling on my head like a memory, falling on my head like a new emotion..." And for tonight, I hesitate to use: "ice, ice baby....." Edited December 15, 2005 by Discordial Quote
Schif Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 We're getting pounded here in Happy Valley. Tons and tons of snow all day... Quote
Metz the Jersey boy Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 So is everyone saying we might see some powdery conditions tonight if I decide to ditch my friends and head to blue.... ? Quote
Ski Posted December 15, 2005 Author Report Posted December 15, 2005 We're getting pounded here in Happy Valley. Tons and tons of snow all day... IDK why, but I always picture this place when you mention Happy Valley, Schif: And it's now SNOWING here like---as Doug Doug would say---a "MOFO"! Quote
Schif Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 (edited) While that very well may be a very happy valley, this is why it got its name http://www.soton.ac.uk/~knoblies/images/So...03/drinking.jpg[/img] On the weekend everyone's happy. Edited December 15, 2005 by Schifdawg Quote
stevePSSC Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 And it's now SNOWING here like---as Doug Doug would say---a "MOFO"! it just started snowing here in Bangor.. just some flurries right now thats all Quote
skigurl Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 snowing like a mofo here, and guess what Pocono Mountain School District is the only one who didn't let out early in the county, so i wouldn't be surprised if they have to hold the elementary runs late b.c of the roads which are pretty icy Quote
Schif Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 Yeah Tussey is open. Not to get on BC's case but Tussey opened with 100% of their trails. Not sure exacly how much has fallen because there is a lot of existing snow here, but its certainly a lot. They're calling for 3 to 5 inches and we're in a Winter Storm Warning. Quote
nfgdrummer21 Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 3-6 for me up in NE Pa....still ice though... Quote
stevePSSC Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 well here in bangor we are expecting 2 inches... Quote

Ha...educate a few brain cells...kill a few brain cells... Oh, and Montage was great from 4 to about 6:30pm...Boomer and Cannonball are open and there was sort of the best of both worlds, with about 1" of new snow on hardpack...but then the sleet started mixing in. Still snowing like crazy toward Tanglwood, though. Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted December 16, 2005 Report Posted December 16, 2005 It was a fun night up at montage tonight. We .were hittin up the 40" flat box . But the Park guy took it down and was pissed because of insurance shit. But hopefully the park opens up soon. All of the rails and boxes they have are nice. For anyone who wants to see them, go over on the bottom of spike and take a look. Quote
Justin Posted December 16, 2005 Report Posted December 16, 2005 (edited) We had some nice accum. but it turned to rain.... Edited December 16, 2005 by justin Quote

poconoceancity Posted December 16, 2005 Report Posted December 16, 2005 Pure Rain...not even a trace of snow left in OC. Quote
Ski Posted December 16, 2005 Author Report Posted December 16, 2005 Pure Rain...not even a trace of snow left in OC. Snow's still holding on here, so far... Quote
Ski Posted December 16, 2005 Author Report Posted December 16, 2005 It's regular rain and 33 degrees here in Allentown. I might have to take a walk around the neighborhood and measure the crust of ice with the tape measure I use to measure tombstones... Funny if it were shaped like a scythe. Quote
Sno Mountain Skier Posted December 16, 2005 Report Posted December 16, 2005 that flat box didn't seem like 40 feet to me...but i guess i was wrong. I only got to hit it once... Me to, but the guy said it was 40, but i dont no. If i had to guess it looked like a 25 or 30 but no matter what it was cool. Did you hut that jump on cannonball, if so how was it? I had to leave just when it was gettin the final touches. Quote

Did you hut that jump on cannonball, if so how was it? I had to leave just when it was gettin the final touches. if i can find a ride up there today i'll do a quick measure with my board. I'm not a huge fan of jumps, more into boxes and rails...that jump was a bit too big for me this early in the season . I did watch one boarder ( the guy who said he was on the park crew) hit it, he started from the top of the quad and didn't carve once, but he didn't clear the top of the headwall. Front of his board landed about half a foot before. He probably got it if he tried again. Whether he cleared it or not, it was massive. Quote
