Ski Southeast Messageboard

Goddammit... I am going to miss all of this because I agreed to play a goddam private party gig on friday night, two hours and a hundred goddam dollars is going to cost me access to the best storm in years

I can still leave early am Sat.? HA!! all interstates will be shut into WV never mind the roads to the Canaan Valley


NEVER,, NEVER Ever commit to anything that does not have a snowstorm exit clause in late january Feb.

If I had a choice right now I think I'd head to Wintergreen or Massanutten Saturday. They are going to get walloped.

Just for fun, here's the latest snowfall output from the GFS through Sunday at 1am. NOT A FORECAST.
Pretty much have every ski resort in VA and WV gets hammered. NC not as much but still a healthy dose.

The overnight Euro run is looking good too. Basically, right now both major models are showing West Virginia and especially the Virginia resorts getting crushed. Saturday and Sunday could be EPIC up there. The North Carolina resorts are where the uncertainty lies. We need the upper and surface low pressures to track further south as depicted in the Euro as to avoid any sleet/freezing rain crud that could mix in.

Getting fired up for this. might even be a meadow opening...

I was hoping to get Friday off but it was denied,damn,whoever is skiing on Friday is lucky ducky!WV is going to be epic on Friday!

I'm hoping for storm after storm and no let up on the temps for the next 2 months!

Man, it sure is quiet around here with this impending epic weekend ahead!!!!!

The SREF Plumes for Boone look fantastic. Showing an average of 18 inches.



In general, the models have trended colder today and we have less of a warm nose aloft to deal with for the High Country. That means less mixing of freezing rain/sleet.

Might as well show other areas....Here's the SREF plume for the area by Wintergreen and Massanutten. Shows an average of 24 inches or so.
