My dad wants to follow the storm and get some skiing in. He hasn't skied once this season because of work.

Im in CT and we will drive anywhere up north (vermont, Maine or New York)

Which mountains do u recommend will be really good if we get a lot of snow during this storm. I wanna go to one that i haven't been a lot before. (I've been to stratton, mount snow, gore and bromely the most)

Which one should we go to for a few days?

Killington, Loon, Bretton woods, Cannon, Sunday river. Id look into those in that order

They are in the heavy band and are looking at 12-16(im in southern maine like 1 hr south of sunday river and we have 9" now and its suposed to snow till midnight maybe early morning....)

Check out New Hampshire or Vermont definitely the places to go. That must be a shitty drive out of CT, but loon, cannon, jay, sugarloaf, Sunday river, killing ton, mrg, and sugarbush are all great. Check them out, I suggest one large mountain so you don't get bored doing the same runs again. Hit up sugarloaf, killington, Sunday river, or Stowe.

Whiteface or Killington. Both have a lot of terrain, but Whiteface has been killing it with their terrain parks, and not to mention if you don't want to lap the park all day, hit up the upper mountain and hit up the Slides if they're open. Killington is HUGE regarding skiing acres, nonetheless, but they have a lot of terrain compared to Whiteface, yet Killington has less vertical compared to Whiteface.
