LAKE EFFECT

2-04-21 by dave

There was a rapid accumulation due to the Lake Effect that moved into the front early in the morning. 5 or 6″ covered the hill for the opening bell and The Faithful were on hand to get after it first thing. It moved through fast, leaving some variable visibility, with some window of Sun and fog. Mineral Basin was socked in to start things out, and it was not readily obvious when the rope dropped. Those who happened to be on hand for that treat got smooth fresh lines top to bottom on the section that did open. Here is a shot that Wynonna sent of one of the Sun windows that broke out.

Sun, Clouds, and soft pack made today a treat for the folks how showed up for the festivities.

The hill is filling in quickly, and many of those areas you may have been avoiding are good to go. Tomorrow, look for and early frontal arrival for the day, which will bring some significant accumulation. Expect snow all day long, so dress for storm riding and cold temps. This storm is coming right out of the North, so the quality will be excellent. More snow on the way later in the week, so enjoy tomorrow, and get ready for the continued freshies. Keep it tight!!!
