to be honest I think this rain is a good thing...we've had an amazing early season (jay peak has 150+ inches already) but there was zero base, the ground wasnt even frozen, which has led to several core shots and open trails having to close because they get so badly skied off. So this thaw will inevitably condense the snowpack and provide a solid base for the rest of the year....so there
 
well, this is christmas break, and im not in college, so i only get a week off. i hate skiing in the rain on shitty snow, so it sucks.
 
Utah weather is back to normal at least in the cottonwoods dont know about pc but it is snowing right now no more rain.

^ i dont like rain either!! It rained all last nite at killy and it was so loud and this morning the snow was almost gone.....
 
its retarted its supposed to be warm till well past new years, at least vt is stayin freezing and below, I feel bad for all more southern resorts like are gona lose everything
 
rain is never a good thing in the winter, so take back what you just said! it can't rain this week. CANNOT. because I want to ski pow at jaypeak
 
we had like a foot of snwo on top the mountain then it rained and went down to liek a few spots of snow and now we have like 3 more inches of snow!
 
it isnt a real bad thing as long as it dosnt destroy all the base that is already built up, kinda wish we just had the high temps without the rain but oh well
 
Too bad you got rain, We were lucky in Quebec city we got a real nice dump of at least 2 feet (Snowed for 24 hrs straight)

We kinda needed some, now all our hills will be 95-100% opened.
 
cool man! im driving from Mtl to Qc for new years eve, so im gonna try to bag a few run at the same time!!! probably at stonham
 
not to burst your bubble, but the ground doesnt really ever freeze. The snow insulates it and keeps it from completely freezing. Something like your driveway (assuming it's dirt) or even just your lawn, that only gets a few feet of snow over the winter will freeze, but when you're talking huge amounts of snow being packed down on top of the ground like at a ski resort, it becomes pretty insulated.
 
yeah its been raining here for like the past week, so gay...but today it started snowing hardcore, tomorrows gonna be sick.
 
I take it back.....rain is gay, i had the worst day of skiing ever today, and I was super amped cuz our parks are finally up but the landings were boilerplate....shit nuts
 
I like the bad weather in New York because it scared all the city people away so there are no lift lines.
 
we were set up for an epic season at whiteface with a better early season park than ever seen before.

then it rained.

now the parks an ice field and the rest of the mountains worse. just because jay peak gets hammered doesn't mean the rest of the east coast deserves rain.

rain, i hate you, never show your ugly face in these parts again.
