mollyskeez Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 what about possible rain over thanksgiving? maybe it will get cold and it will be snow? wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ket19 Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 maybe it will get cold and it will be snow? wishful thinking. There was snow in Philadelphia today! sure, it was just flurries, and sure, it only lasted 20 minutes, but i'm clinging to this for now. i think it means good things.

BC-Mark Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Here is the latest snowmaking update: We will be making snow on Cascade (including the tubing jump line), Black Bear, Kodiak and Cub Run for the next few nights. We are using every tower gun on those trails and all our wheeled guns. Our hope is to have a great set-up for the rail jam on Friday night and some lift serviced terrain for the weekend. The ground has firmed up nicely and the forecast is for light winds and cold temps. The only wildcard is water temperature. It is still hovering in the high 40's so the impact of that remains to be seen. I will post another update tomorrow after we get a feel for what kind of production we get tonight.

EAZY-Emuntz Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 What time are you thinking the guns will fire up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC-Mark Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 They just started the pumps, so I would guess in the next hour or so as soon as the temperatures drop a few degrees. The wind is kicking up a bit so we shouldn't have any issues with temperature inversions tonight but it does make it a bit more difficult to keep the snow on the trails.

mollyskeez Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 ahhh nice. winter is finally here!! will the lights be turning on so we can see the snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC-Mark Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 No lights this year, we are trying to conserve energy as much as possible. You may see every third light on during startup, but other than that, it will be stealth snowmaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
