Just saw on ABC News that Boston and the Northeast was getting hammered, again, with up to 2 feet in places. Just wanted to send out an official "fuck you" from the West Coast, and demand that you post some shots of urban skiing/pow days with all that fresh that you're getting. You better be enjoying it.

Don't know where you live. It's gonna be 20-25 here in Maine, below freezing but 25 is pretty warm considering it was well below zero yesterday/last night.

at my house in southern New Hampshire right now it is -20, and before this storm we had gotten a lot of rain so all the snow we had before melted or formed a solid ice base that made any thing groomed boilerplate

Snow is snow, it comes and it goes, don't fret--it's only January.

But for all the fucking stupid YOLO shit in this thread, I have this to post:

Not seeing enough photos of urban skiing with 2 feet of snow in this thread.


On a related note, do Buddhists have their own version of YOLO? Something like YOLOAOA? "You only live over and over again?"

Idk what you are talking about. The west coast is doing fine. Did some real good side country yesterday. If you are not in Tahoe right now you are missing out big time!

yeah lol evidently we have -50 degree weather on deck for monday, and not too much better tuesday. Today sucked too, it was pretty icy. Luckily it'll eventually warm up here so I think snow is probably coming here soon

were in Celsius, they're Fahrenheiht, so -25F would be around -32C, which happens often in Alberta but definitely isn't average. And I wouldn't be skiing in that

even if it snowed like 3 feet in NJ you would never know it if you only looked at creek cause they groom everything.

The only places I know that have snow in the west right now is Western Montana and Jackson Hole. And then I read on unofficial networks that Mt. Bohemia Michigan has received the most snow in the U.S. right now. Crazy shit.

It's too damn cold in minnesota right now, tried to setup an urban rail but the water jug i brought froze before i could pour any on the lip. Most ski areas around minneapolis are closed monday.

And to be completely honest, there isn't that much snow in minneapolis right now, snow totals in december were over 35" but i put a ruler in the ground and there's hardly 8' on the ground.
