Here's what I've got for the Gore faithful tonight.

This guy from Mad River...it's sound like his head is going to explode. I think they must be messing with his meds:

... prepare for an epic week as the pattern amplifies once again only this time the amplification will have us rock'n in the free world (credit - Neil Young).... Flurries could start Monday as the mountain sits just to the south of a sharp arctic boundary situated over Quebec. Some of this cold over the eastern Canadian provinces will play an instrumental roll in this upcoming storm as it will become entrained into the intensifying system during the middle of the week. As opposed to last week, this system will take a more eastward trajectory as the pattern amplification proceeds. The storm will therefore make good use the Atlantic Coast and will deliver a major winter storm to all of interior New England as it continues to intensify northeast of Cape Cod.

National Weather Service is maintaining a bit more composure. It's all a fancy way of saying Warren County has a 50/50 shot at 7+ inches. To me that means Gore should do well. Maybe a bit manky to start, but should be all snow:

ADIRONDACKS...AND NORTHERN PARTS OF THE LAKE GEORGE AND SARATOGA REGIONS SHOULD SEE ALL SNOW THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...SINCE TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE COLUMN SHOULD STAY BELOW FREEZING...

HIGHS IN AREAS THAT SEE ALL SNOW SHOULD BE LOWER TO MID 30S... AS ALWAYS...SOME MIXING WITH SLEET AND FREEZING
RAIN IN SOME SCATTERED PARTS OF ALL REGIONS...BASED ON ELEVATIONS...BUT DURATION SHOULD BE SHORT...

THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING...THE LEADING UPPER IMPULSE EXITS...ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED LOW-LEVEL FORCING...THEN AS PRIMARY UPPER IMPULSE APPROACHES...WITH SOME POTENTIAL UPPER DEFORMATION PRECIPITATION...ADIRONDACKS AND NORTHERN LAKE GEORGE AND SARATOGA REGIONS SHOULD RECEIVE ADDITIONAL SNOWS....

SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY WEDNESDAY MAY PROVIDE AN INCH OR TWO LOCALLY IN ALL AREAS...WITH MORE POTENTIALLY IN MOUNTAINS.

Guys I think we did as well as anyone. While I think Jay and Stowe will continue to score tonight on upslope leftovers...as of now no one is reporting more than Megatron's 12-16. Gore, to their credit seems to report snow totals from the base.

Enjoy.

At least I'll be on the first Gondi for this one:
