This post was updated on .
Can someone who has skied whiteface today or yesterday please vouch for the 17" claim on the website?  I didn't know the storm moved all the way up there with that intensity....

Skiing whiteface this weekend...wan't to know if I should be extra excited about a 17" storm total....


Thanks
Mike

A friend of mine is there today and just sent me a text that the 17 is ligit. Here is a pic taken this morning.

Here's a report from TeleSkiQueen's Blog that backs up those totals:

I watched the radar quite a bit yesterday. Whiteface was part of the action most of the day.  And with WF's elevation, and it's distance from the radar source, the image probably under expressed what was happening.

HPD's pic says it all - NICE!
