The Weather...

Lets review the past 3 days>>


  • Monday was pure bliss. We picked up our first trace of snow here on the mountain. Scattered flurries continued throuout the day, with the highest peaks (3500'+) receiving additional snow that afternoon. High of 39.
  • Tuesday was a cloudy day, with off and on rain and snow showers. This was also the day where history was set, with snow flurries reported all the way down to northern suburbs of Orlando, Florida. Here, Highest of elevations stayed in the fog, with snow squalls throughout the day. High 44
  • And Wednesday. Cloudy for the first half of the day, giving way to a wintery mix of rain, sleet, and snow which is presently still going on. High for today was 43.


>> Now a look ahead- Cold doesnt seem to stay around. Warming up to around 50 for Thanksgiving day, Then all the way up to 60 on Friday. For the next 6 days, at least, Temperatures look to be average to slightly above agerage. Unfortunately, we wont be going below freezing any in the next 6 days. After the near future, however, Changes look to occur. A cold front will sweep through the midwest, and should arrive in the East around the first of December. The front should bring significantly below average temperatures, which will bode well for snowmaking. Some models are indicating a possible storm as the cold front passes, which should lead to a rani to snow event, with backside upslope once the front passes.

Until then, Happy Thanksgiving.
