East coast rain

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

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.

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.

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.
