As of 8 AM the snow has started as predicted, so it seems that we have a good chance to get at least the 4" minimum and possibly closer to the 8" maximum that is predicted. With the minimum, routes like Marcy Dam Truck Trail, Raquette Falls, Connery Pond and the steeper section of the Jackrabbit Trail will be in good shape. With the maximum, additional terrain such as Marcy Dam to Avalanche Camp, and the Marcy Trail will finally be reasonably skiable.
The only caveat is that this is a coastal storm and predictions of snowfall decrease to the north and west. It may thus take some time to determine just how much snow each area has picked up. Last year, for instance, Boston was hit with 30", Keene got nearly a foot, and ADK Loj only got 4". Hope this pattern doesn't repeat today. We'll update again this evening and again Thursday morning.
