I'm no were in Scott's league.(weather wise) That said, it's going to get cold 
Some of the Catskill areas might even spin in a week to 10 days.
According to the Kton web site they have put down a decent bit of snow

Gaspe Peninsula (and Martimes provinces) got clobbered by Tropical Storm Noel.
The results in the Gaspe is somewhere around 12 inches in Rimouski and much more in the Chic Chocs. Rumours is that someone from ZS was somewhere over there.
No, it's no Frank. He was busy again skiing artificial snow at MSS this time. And Tony calls me nuts.!!! :lol:

Most of the major ski resorts in northern New England and upstate NY will be able to make snow for a better part of the day (likely all day at the summits) from tomorrow night through Saturday. Low elevation highs look to be around 40 or low 40's (I'm talking 1,000ft and below) with near freezing for highs at 3,000ft. Lows will be in the teens and twenties. With high pressure overhead for Thurs and Fri, snowmaking conditions will be optimal. Expect big production from those looking to open a little earlier than the rest of the pack.
Next interesting wx feature is a clipper for Friday night/Saturday. It looks to dive too far south at this point for the north country, but could effect the northern mid-Atlantic and SNE areas with a mix of rain and snow. This could easily be the first snowflakes for the Mid-Atlantic/SNE region above 750ft in elevation (parts of CT, S.NY, NW.NJ, etc). I'll be monitoring this as it should produce a coastal low (a Miller B type system) with a snow/rain shield to the north and west. Precip amounts look light but maybe a 1-2" snow for some areas outside true ski country. Today's 12z EURO had this shown pretty well.
EDIT: Just saw today's 12z Canadian and it went apesh*t with a heavy early season snowstorm from ME back through northern CT. Food for thought considering the GFS has been showing nothing to write home about.

I've always thought Frank was nuts. He was the one who said Patrick was crazy.

It wasn't particularly worth posting anything about. The top third of Rime had gotten wet snowgun damage and was a tilted hockey rink. The lower 2/3 was a decent manmade surface but not particularly worth pulling my boots off and walking back up for another lap.
I've been walking up and down something every weekend to get some exercise since riding my mountain bike to work 3 days per week or so doesn't get the skiing muscle group. Killington last Saturday. Gunstock the Sunday before. Killington the Sunday before that. This time up, I lugged a ski pack. It's not like your AltaBird hike where you got good snow.
