Storm Speculation 3-7-18 (Quinn)

Maybe another one? Hoping it makes it more into the ADKs, heading up to Whiteface this weekend.

All about the benchmark?

Even if this one trends south it looks like upslope flow when the low pulls away could still deliver for the north country?

GFS is onto it...

Winter Storm Watch is widespread...

Looks like Platty has the bullseye on them again.  I plan on being there Friday morning!

Holy crap Plattekill fans, weather.com is calling this one Quinn!

Z it looks like you are going to score this weekend, with a nor'easter no less.

Thar she blows:

Harv you better start driving north....

I don't have the luxury of being in the right place at the right time for this one.  Best I can do is Friday, hill TBD.

I like this one

Every one of these maps looks good for Mount Washington, too.

I'm predicting a Tuckerman Ravine trip for myself in Late March/Early April.

I plan to hopefully finally make it to Tucks this year. Every year I say I’m gonna go and it doesn’t happen.

That dark green blob over the dacks...have barely used the AT rig this year....need to rebuild!

Also contemplating an early April Tuckerman trip!

Anyone planning anything fun in the ADK backcountry, given all the new snow?

Me! me! me!  There's 3 well known routes I still want to do this year, thought I would have done them already but didn't make it up there in Feb due to other trips and shit weather, and also lacking a partner for touring sometimes makes it difficult.  Only one guy I ski with regularly has a setup and is into it.

With the base in the Berkshires right now, the Thunderbolt trail might be calling my name again. That thing is fun.

Tough to schedule this. My ideal Tuckerman trip is two days of 50-60 degrees and sun. Those might happen on weekdays or weekends, at any time in March & April.

So, if I see that weather coming, I'll let everyone know.

I had bagged my tux plans a week or two ago ago when the the little headwall and sherbie melted out, may have to re-think!

Even three feet and things still be marginal in High Peaks...  three feet next week on top of two feet this week and St Patrick be smiling in the adkbc!

Looks like forecast totals are getting upped.
