Spring Fever, Spring Discounts, Great Conditions - we have it all!

03.10.10 08:16 AM

Boy howdy was Tuesday a Spring Fever kind of day. Within our morning report on Tuesday I forecasted numerous spring fever outbreaks and some people playing hooky from work. Around midday the talk around our office was about just how beautiful and great it felt outside. The temps soared to 57° in Banner Elk and it was milder than that at many locations. David Lester's Canaan Valley, WV weather center showed a high of 55° in Davis on Tuesday.

I thought it would interesting to look BACK one year ago today just to see what kind of weather... click here for more




Many Resorts Don't Close, they only cease skiing and snowboarding!

03.9.10 10:00 AM

We discuss ski and snowboarding operation closing dates today! (and more!)

We're on our fifth straight day of sunny skies around the region. We received several reports from mountain resort locations where temps reached into the upper 50s on Monday. It will be even milder at many locations today. Monday was one of those special days to live in the mountains as the day began with snow and then climbed to 58° at my office. That reminded me of an Autumn day several years back when temps were in the upper 50s and I and some friends decided to... click here for more

March 9, 2010 - Rain Showers Creeping Up Towards the End of Week
03.9.10 08:51 AM

It seems that the ski season is slowly coming to an end. This weekend could be last weekend at a few resorts and unfortuantely it won't be a great weekend to end on in the North Carolina Mountain.  Lots of rain is coming through and clearning out by Sunday so take advantage of the season ending deals and the good weather on Sunday. As for the rest of the week Brad Panavoich out of Charlotte... click here for more click here for more

DON'T GIVE UP NOW! - says Joe Stevens
03.8.10 01:21 PM

Hello Everyone –

I am one who really doesn’t like when the obvious is stated, but what a season so far for every skier, snowboarder and snow tuber in the region!

Along with the huge amount of natural snowfall this year from Tennessee to Maryland, the consistent sub-freezing temperatures have allowed the on-ground snow to not go anywhere for the most part. That means anyone planning to hit the slopes will not... click here for more
