Saddleback yesterday. Sisters getting after it.
 
Side note about the southeast . . . a few resorts started up snowmaking earlier this week. Most of the resorts have already given up and closed for the season. Temps are expected to be in the 20s for several nights in WV, VA, NC, western MD (Wisp). Except for Snowshoe and Timberline, most of the resorts had to suspend operations after the late February heat wave. But sounds like there will be lifts running this weekend.

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 309 AM EST Thursday...Generally quiet weather expected
for the start of the long term with high temperatures around to
just below average (30s) as ridging builds. The next system of
note is forecast to arrive Monday. The GFS, which has been an
outlier with this storm as well, has begun shifting the location
of its coastal low towards the New England coast, more closely
resembling the setup of the ECMWF and Canadian models.
There`s
still some spread, however, in what the models are predicting,
so we`ll need to monitor it for another couple runs before
really understanding the details, especially as some of the
models show a double-barreled low developing
. For now,
confidence is growing that at least 0.01 of an inch of precip is
expected, especially along the spine of the Greens, so we have
60-80% PoPs highlighted Monday night and Tuesday with a mix of
rain and snow as highs continue to reach in the 30s.
Conditions
are expected to dry out again by Thursday morning as ridging
likely builds back into the region.
 
No doubt Jason will help us temper expectations, but OpenSnow is currently showing 28 inches for Whiteface next week, with a couple other sources aligning with the Mon pm to Wed am event. Fingers crossed!
