The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

The next couple of days are going to be cold, but not that cold. We'll see some overnight snowmaking but there is rain in the forecast for Friday and Saturday and Thursday and Friday will be warmer. I'm pretty bummed as I don't think Beech is going to open this weekend now due to rain on Saturday. Sunday would be one of those windy, full on snowmaking blizzard whiteout days.



The big story is the cold that is possibly in store for next week. This would be as cold as the blast a few weeks ago, but it would stick around much longer. Beginning Sunday, we could see around the clock snowmaking from Sunday through Turkey Day at least. Here's the Euro meteogram for Boone. That would be snow for Beech and Sugar on the 27th.







And the GFS.







I'm still pretty wary of this, as the models have been pretty poor lately this far out. If it pans out though, Thanksgiving weekend would be pretty nice and we'd get the kickstart we need. This is for NC by the way, Snowshoe looks damn good right now and they should open with some really, really good conditions next week.



This is definitely not a forecast, so don't take it as one. Just a look at the models. I feel like I have to say that now with all the social media hubub that goes on with weather nowadays.
WOOOOOO!

If this pans out you would be the winner. Next week looks GOOD. All indications are the season is about to get a kickstart.



WOOOOOO!

Looks like you might be a day off now honestly dude. The temps on Tuesday might be just a little too warm for snow. Models are showing a cold rain (and a lot of it) and then snow on Wednesday.



I am stoked as **** right now though because next Friday and Saturday at Beech look awesome!
WOOOOOO!
