A lot of snow overnight and with the bit since early morning during the day yesterday, the ski area seems to be reporting 44-55cm of snow on upper areas. Lots.
I have 20cm to report from base.
It is another cold morning and those forecasts show relentless incoming snow for at least another several days. Ranging from light to heavy snow during that period. Friday night looks like it should be huge numbers.
