No, Blue Mountain the true mountain

Anyone have a formula to figure the wind speed it takes to blow a pallet aprox 30 feet?

Ahhh... the ski area formerly known as Little Gap

See WF and Stowe have a lot in common - 113 mph winds recorded on both yesterday.   Yikes!

What's happening this weekend?

Not much, it seems!  Looks like a crappy weekend in the East.  Looks like Scotty let me down!!  No significant snow in the High Peaks, and winds could gust to 75 at the WF summit tomorrow, with gusts as high as 55 on Saturday.  Cold, windy, firm and miserable.....so much for spring!

Summit County and the I70 resorts look pretty good this weekend (hmmmm).....otherwise it’s a snow level crap shoot out West.

Winds dying down overnight.  We’ll get 2-5 inches of dense snow.  Not gonna be spring skiing that’s for sure.  

Sometimes the amazing beautiful chocolate cake aint as great as we’d hope...  so much snow still up in them there mtns though!!
