The humid and warm “hurrah” of September has come to a close, and the weather pattern seems to be following the calendar into October with some cloudy, cool, and showery conditions. The shower activity, as small as it may be, is welcomed in our severe drought situation in New England. Thankfully we’re much better off …

There are so few things that can be categorized as normal since March 2020, but returning to forecasts and tracking cold air/snow makes it feel a little bit more like a normal fall. We’re excited to bring some enhancements to the dashboard this season. First and foremost, welcome to your corporate dashboard! Any Boyne Resorts …
It’s been a season of waiting for some consistent troughing the east, and – we’re still waiting. This was expected to be an “off” year – of the likes of 2011/2012, 2015/2016. When asked about how I felt about the upcoming winter last fall – I said to many clients that we were due for …
The old March saying is “in like a lion, out like a lamb” – I’m going to switch that up and say “in like a lamb, out like a lion” because we have some interesting movements in the teleconnections right now. I don’t think this will be a March 2018 repeat (unfortunately) when we had …
If we want to find the silver lining, it’s that we won’t see a total washout of a rain event for Vermont. There is a chance of rain mixing at the bases, but above 2,000 feet we should be seeing snowfall. While the EPO/NAO turned neutral, it wasn’t enough to lock in the cold air, …
Stars certainly aligned for vacation week – some windy days here and there, but fresh snowfall, plenty of sun, and warming temperatures to end the week made for a stellar holiday period, and vacation week for the ME/MA/northern NH districts. A couple blogs back we spoke about the NAO (North Atlantic Oscillation) starting to dip …
Why we may be seeing more snow and less ice – check out the in depth analysis in today’s video.
With the lack of blocking, or a negative NAO/AO in our teleconnections, our best bet are well-placed high pressures, and it looks like that may come into line and in our favor for the 3rd storm in a row. Notice the wall of high pressure systems from the Midwest into eastern Canada – this is …
We have a light refresher snowfall coming our way at the most important time frame – right before vacation weeks. It’s a quick moving system with marginal temperatures, so it will be a wetter snow for Hunter, Mount Snow, and likely Attitash. Wildcat may sneak away with a less-wet snowfall. Overall, amounts will range from …
Since posting the video blog around 9am this morning, we’ve started to see some more snow transition occurring. Intermittent snowflakes already at the summit of Mount Snow, and at the base/summit of Wildcat/Attitash. As the low ramps up, the warm layer aloft could still be moving around, which means we could still see some mixing …
