Jan 26/13 - Another day of snow
Photos don't really show it but it is snowing dry flakes this morning and socked in up top a bit. Yesterday it snowed all day but it was wet snow that melted on the vehicles. There is a crust this morning with about 2cm of fresh snow on top of it. Supposed to keep it up all day and be zero and +1 today with more wet flurries down here and a colder alpine temps around -7 per the South Rockies forecast with 5cm expected up top or more. More flurries expected Tuesday so this weather will likely continue. As I look out the window and while writing this the flakes have increased in size and intensity 10 fold! Not like the photos I am just posting so the day can swing either way for light or heavier snowfall. Either way we will take it. The wind stripped many faces and loaded the wind in pockets and filled the trees. Avy reports are moderate til they can see what is happening with the bonding between the weak layer formed by weeks of little new snow and this new snowfall. Great for our guests - they got fresh groomed trails on the Flathead yesterday and snow daily. Now remember - its not powder out here yet - there is lots of great riding but snow over the hood is going to be in isolated areas til we get more of what we are getting today. Just keeping your expectations in check lol. Oh and a GO AUSTIN GO - to Austin Luhning racing his Timbersled in McCall Idaho this morning! Cheers - V
