Tomer’s Take: An Arctic front is diving south through MT, WY, and CO driving the snow accumulation. This Arctic front then moves east and develops into a deep area of low pressure for the Great Lakes and Northeast. Unfortunately, the track puts the ski areas of VT, NH, and ME in the warm sector with a mix of precipitation. On/after 12/27 the West could see a moderate intensity atmospheric river.

Hey, Chris! Will this bitter cold kill off the pine beetle? When we lived in Vail, we were told that only fire or bitter cold could kill them.
Hi Anne, I don’t think we can get cold enough for long enough to kill them. Chris
wow that would be so great if the beetles did not survive.
i could do without the grasshoppers too.
