Cannon has readjusted their opening lineup also.The ttb posting last week has changed to lower mt with The detach and Eagle Cliff chairs.

Maybe by Saturday they could be TtB?

Would a west wind coming from the other side of the mountain close the peabody on Friday? I would say maybe the Cannonball which is not even scheduled to be open Friday

Caught Matt Noyes' month forecast for December this morning, not good. Temps much above normal with above average precip. Crap.

December does not look good for snowmaking. Maybe the mountains get lucky and get a dump in this bad pattern. 3-6" possible tonight up high in the northern greens.

Yeah this pattern is pretty bad looking. Hopefully, when the r@!n clears out tomorrow, it will at least allow resorts to blow snow at night for the next few days. You guys can blame me since I laid out new insulation in my attic to prevent ice dams to occur.

We will be going into a good snow making pattern with colder temps at night. However there is a boat load of r@!n coming for now!

South is NOT fine.Except for the Cannonball,the south wind is the worst wind for Cannon.Believe me,I've lived at Mittersill for over 20 years and know it well.I've had many a night not being able to sleep cuz the roof sounds like its going to blow off with that south wind.Any other direction hardly even registers except near the summit.A west wind doesn't effect Cannon at all except the very summit.A north wind will blow pretty much straight up the mountain and not effect lift operation.

This is optimistic. We'll have a short window at elevation, and then more warm air next week. There looks like a decent chance of a coastal low next week, but very little cold air to be found.
