Yep, I could see the lights on and some "snow fog" on the hill last night. Plus they say it will be cold enough for the next 5-7 nights :-D

going through the day today!

Sweet! Nice pics. Bombing out on Temptor I see. Niiiiiice! Looks like some great progress for one night of snowmaking. Got the ground covered; now it's time to build those whales! Any chance of a soft opening this weekend?

Were you able to keep them on all day? It seemed like you were flirting with 32 degrees for a while. Looks like you're back below freezing. Pretty dry out too.

Yes, we went all day. The wet bulb temp. topped out at 28.5f. Water is holding up. It has been the best first 20hrs of snowmaking we have ever had.

You're the man. Keep blasting away. Can't wait for the 28th. Praying for Temptor bumps....

It only made it up to 29.8F here at home today and I was thinking about how good a day of snow production Sundown would have with these temperatures.

NOAA calls for below normal temperatures for the next week with maybe some snowfall early next week.

Go Sundown, Go
