Happy New Year!
And tons of snow to get things going.
A lot of wind as well; less than last night, but it's blowing pretty hard at times. Hard to tell how much snow fell overnight, as things were drifting a lot, but probably 50+ cm, and possibly more.
It's still snowing steadily out there, with a few fresh centimeters per hour coming down. Some chance of the gondolas slowing down/stopping if the wind does pick up again, but otherwise a good, moderately cold, snowy day to start 2105.
