Base Area Snow

As I left work yesterday, it had just started snowing in the base area. Overnight we received a couple of inches of snow at the bottom and more up high. With humidity at nearly 100% the low wet bulb temperature at midway was 28 F, a borderline condition for snowmaking. Tonight looks to be similar with high humidity and temps in the high 20's. Now Wednesday night looks to be another story. Right now temps are forecast down to 20 F or maybe even colder. I hope we are delivering some good news on snowmaking Thursday morning.
