Winter has really come back with a roar -- snow, cold and high wind. Another of those days when it's hard to tell how much actually fell overnight, with lots of drifting around the house. Probably not all that much yet, but the rate of snowfall has really picked up. A lot of locals were hoping for the March powder that has been a highlight of the last few years, and here it is....
Now, since I wrote that an hour or so ago (waiting for the local snow reports to come in), the sun has started to come out and the snow has tapered out. The snow keeps coming on and off, though, but luckily the wind has come down, meaning less likelihood of lift closures. So come out and enjoy!
