Still Good, but How Long?

(Photo: Killington, Dec. 25) Despite the recent rain, the conditions are still good and the snow deeper than usual. However, the ungroomed glade skiing is a problem since the snow is now covered with a heavy crust.

Go now, because it's unclear how long our better than average conditions will continue. Warm temps and good snow are likely to hold through the holiday weekend, with even some light dustings of new snow.

It's very unclear how long our good fortune will last. Some predictions beyond Jan. 4 are not looking good. We may be in for some warmer temps and rain.

So the New England Snow Detective's advice is to go now. While the going is still good.
