Doug...

 

Start planning your marquis route!! Can't wait to ski some fresh Pa. Edgar Allen with the PASR crew!!

 

I'm so F'N Stoked it ain't funny... I've been drilling my bosses head all day calling him a puss if he don't make it out there to suck up the POE..

 

Either way I'm there Sunday and SERIOUSLY thinking about calling out work Monday if there's good coverage and I want to do the 4 hour (good weather) round trip two days in a row...

Gay?

Most of us on here are, Chippy...we just assumed you were one of us.

 

 

 

The snow cover in the northern Poconos is melting away today. Pretty cool that our schools have already had three 2 hr. delays and one full snow day. Hopefully, tomorrow's storm sets in. The local guys are saying 2-4" and 3-6", but it's like they're paranoid of getting Sat/Sun wrong, so they just keep saying "possibility of a classic nor'easter".

If we get a little tomorrow are they talking early or late. I have a half day and will already be in Lansdale getting my Jeep worked on so I might have to bring the board.

 

I can't wait for Sat-Monday. I printed out Henry's map and hung it in my cubicle

yes. i'm aware. they are saying that there is potential for a foot+ this weekend if the low stays off land and rides the coast... thats the 'big snow' that i was talking about.

 

 

my guess is that tomorrows is going to stall and Saturdays is going to zip right on through.

just got done packing my gear and making sure I've got it all ready for my first trip of the season.

took the day off work tomorrow... heading up to Elk first thing. leaving from Philly around 6:30. I'm secretly hoping that I get "stuck" there and can't get back to Philly for work on Friday.

 

one more drink, then off to bed :zzzz

 

bonsoir
