Yes . . . NWS/NOAA

Its been some time since we have gotten a 18+ single storm bomb. Hopefully this one pulls through or it could just be more fake news and at the point if this doesn't happen I'm blaming the Russians. This should lay down some much needed tree skiing base.

The icing on the cake will be this weekends storm of 6+

Stella!!!

Ha, good one

Enjoy your time out there next 2 days... I know I will

NOAA totals now at 32-37", maybe more this weekend? Hopefully the wind does not blow it all off the trails.

Temps today in the low teens. Dry snow. Winds will be building into the East in the high 40s
at the peaks. East Fall will be East Drift. Glades chair doubtful. K1 in the afternoon will be interesting. Wind chill on the exposed ridges of ten below nearly inconsequential for those that have hardened up under the guns of Superstar the last 2 days. Accumulations in the ahhhhh range.

It's on.
