bigdaddyk Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 (edited) Looking at the forecast and radar, it doesn't look good. The 50+ degree temps today really loosened up the snow base. If we get 3 inches of rain, it's going to be hard to salvage anything. Plus, there is a serious potential for flooding. If there is flooding, people aren't going to go skiing. It's supposed to get cold again, during the nights. If it floods, all of this will freeze and be a big mess for clean up. I hope I'm wrong and just being pessimistic, but it doesn't look good. Plus they are calling for temps in the 50's with rain on the 12th, 13th, 14th. Edited March 4, 2008 by bigdaddyk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdaddyk Posted March 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 What are Jams.. They were a brand name of multi colored shorts that were popular in the late 80's / early 90's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdaddyk Posted March 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Accuweather is now saying that there could be a major noreaster Friday into Saturday that could dump over a foot of snow. That would help salvage the season. I don't hold much faith in Accuweather, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Law Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Accuweather is now saying that there could be a major noreaster Friday into Saturday that could dump over a foot of snow. That would help salvage the season. I don't hold much faith in Accuweather, though. Me neither..... still somewhat boner inducing the end of skiing in the east is still a long ways off. NOAA in all its wonder has thousands of stations across the country measuring gobs and gobs of info regarding snowpack. One of things they measure is current melting rates and it doesn't look all that bad. Additionally if you switch to station info the snow temp is only bad from VT south excluding the NY highpeaks. http://www.nohrsc.noaa.gov/interactive/htm...o12=1&o13=1 The larger remote sensor system page is here http://www.nohrsc.noaa.gov/interactive/htm...p;js=1&uc=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

method9455 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 This season is never ending At least its getting closer, I passed it on my way to work every day over the winter. While it might be the ugliest thing I have ever seen, I'm definitely hitting it up once it opens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrwilco Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 i hear it wont be open until fall though. perfect timing in my opinion, the fall is the hardest to get through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdaddyk Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 i want to ski tomorrow. i got out today before the rain came... wtf. I honestly don't see how anybody will pull through this with good conditions. Some places will more than likely be closed down. This is just way to much rain and too heavy. I hope I am wrong, though. I am seriously worried about flooding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
