I wonder if they changed the pipes or guns and wanted to see how much snow they can blow top to bottom at once for planning purposes. Looking at the long range forecast, if they want to open for the 23rd of November they will have to make huge progress over only 3-4 cold nights to build a base.

Stowe Facebook page posted a photo today and said "Fan Guns on Lower North Slope right now[FONT=lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif]." [/FONT]

You know that most will try to throw down as much as possible tonight and even tomorrow night! Create whales and once the colder weather returns Friday night move it and blow more.

I guess Wachusett's "test" is on a 2nd night. Maybe they'll let us hit some whales tomorrow :D
