It's the most wonderful time of the year! No, not Christmas. Temps dropped just low enough overnight that at 5 AM on September 22, Sunday River's excellent team of snowmakers fired up the guns for the first snowmaking test of the 2015/16 season

Realistically read as the grass on T2 will now be much greener than it would have been providing a stark color contrast for the looming leaf peeping season
Regardless, this is an AWESOME sign of things to come

IDK, that didn't really look like "snow". 0.1% of what made it to the ground looked frozen

Really? Looked like snow to me and there was definitely stuff sticking to the ground frozen!

Blowing out the mice does not revolve around production - just getting marginal at best snowmaking conditions and making sure the equipment operates as intended.

Most areas don't have to blow out mice (like that's what they're really doing). Don't think mice would fit through those nozzles. Most areas know their snowmaking equipment is operational long before. We'll see which areas snowmaking opens the hill first. Pretty sure it'll be the usual candidates. Not that early season matters much to me. Pretty sure I know who'll be the last one standing in the spring.This matters.

I'm trying to understand how it can be way below normal very far south and above normal way far north.
A colder than average winter may be on the horizon for portions of the Southwest, Southern Plains, Southeast and East Coast, according to a December 2015-February 2016 temperature outlook released by The Weather Channel Professional Division on Friday.

Yes it is. The Weather Underground was bought out some time ago.
