Seriously, WTF is with this Weather?

[RidgeRacer]

You're not gonna get nothing.  Temperatures are crashing everywhere. 

News just said 9 inches for us. We'll see. Heavy wet snow is a bitch to shovel / blow. Plus it doesn't bode well for power lines.

They'll be power outages like crazy..more from the winds than the snow.

Starting to changeover at Blue.

Temps are falling way faster than originally forecast. A lot of the Catty's are already reporting 12+ inches and we got another 24 hours of heavy snowfall to go. 

Somebody over on AZ said the snow quality wasn't that bad, as temps were around 29 degrees.

I'm not skiing today, but just wondering how fun this heavy wet snow is to ski in? Seems like it would take a lot of effort.

Took an extra 10 minutes to get to Somerville NJ. Only one totaled car on 78. Appointment is a half hour late, new dealer has a death call.  

 

34 degrees and fat wet flakes falling and barely sticking to the grass.

It's amazing fun..you just need speed and pitch..sometimes if it's deep you want to ski in others tracks on the flatter sections and then hop in the untracked where it's steeper.  While it's not perder, a small amount of heavy wet snow will keep you above the nasties below. Always nice not to hit bottom.

29 isn't cement snow more medium to heavy density

Plattekill could have its most crowded weekend ever (maybe even 5 person lift lines) if they are the only ones in the Catskills with power in all this snow (they still had it as of an hour ago, and 12" on the ground with more falling)

No better place to ski when there is a foot of fresh snow this side of MRG

Magic Mtn is similar too. Place is a blast if they have enough snow.

Blue webcams looking nice. I'm driving back from Somerville now. Still wet snow not sticking. I bet it will be rowdy around mike marker 12 Jug mountain 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Stuck on 78 westbound just after the tolls.

Heavy snow in central Chester county for past 2 hours.  A lot of power outages already 

[Schif]

it's dumping like crazy in Blue Bell. Lights flickered twice already and a big tree branch already slammed into the window. Gonna be leaving soon.

Wild ride home in Bethlehem. Crazy wind and some big branches down. Still snowing.

170% fucking fun. HTFU . It wasn’t that heavy, especially up top. Best day of the season and I get to go back again for free now. No hot chocolate or cookies though.

It is ridiculously windy here. What happened? Forecast said rain lol

I'm so proud of you guys. WTGAI JADIP. I can't even get motivated enough to finish shoveling.
