Month late.............

 WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

* WHAT...Snow. Total snow accumulations of 3 to 6 inches.

* WHERE...Northern Herkimer and Hamilton Counties.

* WHEN...Until 8 PM EDT Wednesday.

* IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. Travel could be
very difficult.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow will increase tonight with snowfall
rates a half an inch to an inch per hour briefly. A lull may
occur after day break but scattered heavy snow showers and an
isolated snow squall may impact the western Adirondacks in the
afternoon with gusty winds and reduced visibilities with
additional snow accumulations.

A few people called today wanting to know if the trails will reopen if we get snow.
This is from the towns website about the trails reopening.

We received 3 inches of snow yesterday and last night, which is melting now. Snow forecasted today and tomorrow, with accumulations of 4 to 7 inches. That is being evaluated daily, but probably will not be enough to open the trail system and provide safe riding conditions. Temps in the 40s and rain returns next week.

There is no base, only 2 to 6 inches layer of mud on the trails remains unfrozen.

  1. A lot of big if's for sure ,if we get the snow on Friday and if it's enough, then if OF overloards open the gates. My guess is a big fat NO! will say trails have mud - no cold temps fixed that - reason why open with 10 days left in the season they are going to cut their losses , not worth the damage to the equipment. Even for some reason they do open, some ass hat will put themselves into a tree it's karma first ride last ride always happens.

    1. Gotta roll with the punches guy, yeah it sucks, but we're not the Midwest mountains. It just goes with the turf. I'm right along side of you.

  6. Like you said Dave? You're no better this time around like you were for all your bogus talk for March 11th. It's too little too late, ground is thawed, all melting underneath. Trails may hold for a few Sunday driver sleds, but the throttle jockeys that would show up would kill it and maybe a few of themselves.
