The snow is already cranking across parts of New England- and it will continue to get worse as the afternoon progresses. Currently, the center of this storm is located just off the Jersey shore. In the past 3 hours, we’ve seen 5 mb pressure falls off the coast, and rapid pressure rises in eastern Ohio/western PA behind this system.

Breaking News From Ski Country

My Favorite two words- ‘Powder Alert’ at Mount Mansfield Vermont.
The alert shows up on Stowe.com when ever the heavens open up with snow.
Even if I am not there, I get excited. Today though, I am there.. here, in Vermont 
The FourRunner Quad opened at 7:30, I made the 7:43 Chair. Not too bad for driving up in the snow from Midnight to 2 AM.
Snow was blowing about 45 mph at the Base, while at the Top of The Quad, it was Less Windy.
The old snow is still 30″ deep, the 6″ of new snow adhered nicely to the old snow thanks to a gradual cooling Monday Night.
I had a Top Ten Ski Morning today.
The Glades below Rimrock were soft with plenty of Knee Shots. Lord, Sunrise, Standard all Great Groomed, with Machine and Natural Hybrid Soft Snow. Lower National, Groomed and soft with Freshies all Morning. I could go on..
So it is winter again.
Not all areas were this snowy, but the trend is for at least a little snow at just about every ski area in the Northeast.
Joe, Danielle, and Mark are handling the hard part. That is forecasting exactly where, when, and how much snow, is expected at your house.
I ‘ll keep you posted from here.

In the past several hours, we’ve been dealing with very gusty winds out of the northwest. Read more
