It's coming down pretty good here. Trash truck is back in action, did the trash, roads were sketchy even a half hour ago. Barely got up the driveway.

I’ll keep following. I’m surprised they’re only charging $103 for 8 hour tickets. I feel like demand is higher now than last weekend when they were charging more.
there are 150 new am tix for sun

There’s only 3 morning tickets left for Sunday and two afternoon tickets left for tomorrow.
is it just for that price range? like when those 2/3 sell will it release another more expensive set?

@Benm your best chance of fresh is prob being a rider of the storm Saturday night.

Was your first big pow day @Blue where we poached coming soon then it opened 10 minutes later? Amazing to think that run was open for weeks on all natural snow cause it kept snowing in 2021.
Yes was my first pow day ever and then we got another good dump a bit later. That was a good week (i think it was within a week)
Does this chest mount footage still exist?

It’s snow so we got that going for us. Blue should be all snow. 👍
"Primarily heavy, wet snow"
Ngl that scares me. I remember a terrible day with @RidgeRacer where we had like 5" of straight concrete.
All good if they grind it into the man made tho.

I winter storm watch has been issued for the poconos for the potential of 5-8” of snow. The latest forecast for the Lehigh valley shows rain mixing in keeping the totals down to an inch or two.

Bummed that WNEP Meteorologist John Hickey seems to have gotten canned. His reports (also posted on FB) were a great source of info on PA ski related weather.

yeah i just didn't know if there was some average rule.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich do you know how much natural snow it takes to make up for an inch of manmade? i know wetness is a factor, but in general.

Ideally you’d want them to groom before the snow falls but if it’s not a lot of snow over ungroomed..not that great..that’s known as dust on crust.
haven't looked into it much since learning about it, but i was under the impression its supposed to start late afternoon, until around opening the next day. i guess they could groom at 9pm but who knows how much precip would have fallen by then.

Anybody remember when i said it was gonna snow, and we would be fighting for some powder turns on 3 trails? looks like that dream could come true.
i remember you saying that.
it would be a shitshow for sure. looking at the timing, i'm wondering if they'll leave anything ungroomed.
personally i'm not holding out any hope for even a flake until saturday.-

Thanks for all the reports..I was up early but didn’t really feel like skiing. Yesterday I didn’t really feel like skiing especially driving in the fog and rain but the runs were enjoyable and glad I got the last of upper paradise and the last of lazy mile the other day. I’m going tomorrow with zero expectations. I think it could be spicy out there. If coming soon to lower paradise is still open and they’ve patched up the Nile river crossing, that might be a bit quieter. I hate all that vista jazz and the crossover from lower vista to upper midway my head is on a swivel.
ski some of y’all tomorrow.
Don't get it wrong, it was different today but it was the best skiing of the year. You missed it.
