It is still warm and it is snowing again. Much like the night before, the snowmakers turned the system on a couple of times in anticipation of a temperature drop. Unfortunately, the drop did not occur. We ran the system a little bit, but didn't make much snow. The forecast is for a reasonable amount of snow today and tonight. In the long run, this is a very good thing. In the short term, I wish we were making snow right now. This early season snowfall, however, will lead to a bump in streamflows which leads to more water available for snowmaking in the coming days and weeks. Yes, it would be great to be making snow this morning, but this precip probably equates to an overall net increase in snowmaking.
