DHarrisburg Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 No established base + new snow is a really bad combo. FYI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTmark Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 why is that a bad combo? sounds like it estlabsedes its own base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurker Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 No established base + new snow is a really bad combo. FYI. You need new snow to establish a base. Of course it won't stick around, but at least we could setup a rail in the backyard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHarrisburg Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 why is that a bad combo? sounds like it estlabsedes its own base. It's a bad combo because all it does is slightly cover the ground, and when you make a turn you're going to cut straight to the ground. New snow this early is good for establishing a base to be built on (provided it stays cold enough to make snow after the fall), but even if it snowed a foot you're still going to have a problem with riding on it without a base. Plus, a base will keep the snow colder so it'll stick around longer (even if it rains). You need new snow to establish a base. Of course it won't stick around, but at least we could setup a rail in the backyard. That's fine, just don't expect your local mountain to open up the day after the storm.

I'm sure no-one here expects any of the local mountains to open until at least thanksgiving (even being very optimistic), but snow is snow. Bring it....

skierboi Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 now they changed it where only a slim area gets the heavy snow, and most of the NE gets rain, but still its gunna snow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papasteeze Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 You know if the snow starts early that means that we get that 70 degree and rain crap in mid February Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 You know if the snow starts early that means that we get that 70 degree and rain crap in mid February That's not necassarly true, what if it's just a longer winter? 70 in January, I dunno about that but lets hope not. Tannersville is suppose to get some snow Tuesday too. No accumulation but hey if it snows it still counts as snow in October. So far (knocking on wood) this winter looks promising.
