Killington during afternoon snow squall
February 13, 2006, 2:45 PM

We may have missed the big storm which struck New York and Boston over the weekend, but we are still feeling some of the effects of it at Killington today. Conditions are somewhat raw and blustery, with a continuous light snow flurry in the air. You can see some of the flakes of snow coming down in the Snow Stake picture for today.

Although today was supposed to be a ski day, the business of running an inn took precedence. Part of my day was spent running errands in Rutland Vermont. I am always amazed at the weather differences between Killington and Rutland, even though they are only about 12 miles apart. Rutland was sunny and mild, with virtually no snow on the ground. In Rutland, you could see the wind pushing the clouds into the backsides of Killington and Pico, resulting on our localized snow flurry up here on the mountain. Hopefully, I will get a chance to test out the snow on the mountain tomorrow.
