    I don't like those odd's in that a random lake effect band could spoil my bet. I would bet my house on the cat's being done.

    That depends on the wager. Starting today every mountain is going to lose snow, and gain none. I'm not sure how quickly the snow loss will be, but it could be significant with a soaker or really warm day/warm overnight. The chances of a cold/snowy late March are slim. I'd LOVE to be wrong...

    It's o'va! Almost 70 in Saratoga Springs next week. Nothing but rain and above average temperatures into mid March. This season was a train wreck.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Winter Weather 2023/24

    I expect most mountains to make it until the end of March, but with a loss of terrain, especially on non-snowmaking trails. Our ski seasons are shrinking.

    Winter Weather 2023/24

    I agree, the temperature profiles, even at altitude, screams snow melt. I may end up eating $$$ this season for the first time in a long time.
