Who is thinking and saying what about the near term possibilities for...uh...um...oh, yeah...SNOW...in say the next 10 days ?

Weather forecasts ? Temps anticipated ? Epic storm cycle arriving...like yesterday ? What are your sources saying ? Is there at least a vaguely defined consensus (for what that's worth in the weather prognosticating arts) about our mid to late-January probabilities ?

Just curious (And I'm keeping my March & April dance card wide open for MRV pow).

Well it looks like warmer weather and no big storms for the foreseeable future. They are saying that the end of the month looks better with colder weather and some possible storms. Also, Josh Fox's forecast is very negative. I think he needs a beer. Wink

Hawk nails the general consensus for near & mid term pattern

Good source of NE ski weather info: http://www.famousinternetskiers.com

Lionel has the goods and the requisite track record

my crystal ball tells me that if you are trying to decide when to take a weekend off, the next two weeks may be a good time. Let's hope the thaw is not too bad, and followed by some snow in quick succession.

They say it is all about to change in the Rockies. The storms are lining up.

Something on the order of 10 feet expected at Mammoth.

I've seen that pattern before and it favors the San Juans. Viva Silverton www.silvertonmountain.com

Beaver Creek and Vail should do ok as well but my money is on the san juans and sangre de cristos

This is cruel and unusual punishment this season.

It rained all summer and fall. El Nino is churned up giving good supply of moisture, and the cold has been here. So where are our Big Dumps?

All autumn everyone on this forum was doing snow dances and we got rain. This is torture for me. Just waiting for some fresh.

I can't help but think someone has jinxed us. Fess up! Who was naughty?? Just admit it and maybe it will all change for the better!

I'd start pointing fingers but unfortunately smootharc, Hawk and 007 have been pretty good this season. Even Barkbiter had a beer with me.

Waiting, waiting, Bueller, Bueller.....

...naughty. Because I think 007's mind positively swims with naughty thoughts. That's why I try to avoid chairlift rides with him, so as to minimize my exposure to corrupting influences.

Very Happy

Don't you mean, you don't ride on the chairlift with 007 so you don't add fuel to the fire?
