4, maybe 5" here. Still snowing and 18 degrees, but it was kind of a bust. :-? Not much left on the radar so it won't be the epic powder day we were all hoping for. No matter, I'll still be there for 7:30.

yeah, similar totals down here, maybe a bit less. i could here some crunching under the dogs paws this morning when i let them out.

 

[gmcunni]

leaving in a few. should be there by 7:30 or so. bringing my son along with me.

A bit of sleet mixed in with the almost 2" that fell overnight. If it stayed all snow at Sundown, we might be looking at 6". Great bump building snow too. They're reporting 6-10". Leaving now.

They must be using a different type of ruler over there...try 4-5 and with sleet mixed in.

Perhaps, but I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt. That page was updated last night I believe and the totals were based on the forecast. 4-5" and dense (which was good since it held up pretty good all day) is about right. Helluva day:

How can you "update" your new snow totals BEFORE it snows? This is exactly the kind of thing that makes me very skeptical about ski area condition reports.

Please just the facts....If I drive somewhere based on listed conditions and then find out otherwise, I'll be a very unhappy, less likely to be back anytime soon former customer.

 

[Greg]

I hear ya. Not sure whose oversight that was. Normally their snow totals are pretty close.
