Signs that we're getting closer to ski season

Thursday night's forecast has some mention of possible frost. And Friday night's forecast for Mount Washington has the mention of possible rain and snow showers.

"Friday Night: A slight chance of rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 28. Chance of precipitation is 20%."

We're getting close to that 2 month window here in the Northeast.

Just thought I'd stoke everyone out a little.

"Statistical reports show that stoke levels are on the rise among skiers as the winter season nears..."

Booya, statistics are on our side! Yeah! Graphs and charts in all their statistical goodness! Yeah! Wooh! BAM!

Also, ns is becoming just a little less postwhorey and flamey, not to say I'm not postwhoring right now.
