Last night, we received about 1 and 1/2 inches of wet snow as part of a storm system moving through the area. This morning, unfortunately, it has turned liquid. By the time the weather system moves thru in mid afternoon, snow depths will probably wind up being equal to what they were before it started. It has been one of those winters. I would expect weekend skiing to be quite good on soft surfaces, as the temperatures behind this storm are not due to drop much below freezing.

Of course, Superbowl weekend is upon us. It is always hard to guess how busy the mountain will be on this weekend, especially since over the last few years the New England Patriots have been one of the contenders. This weekend, however, where there is no Boston or New York team involved, and the game is in Detroit, it looks like the mountain may be a little busier than normal (if our inn and restaurant reservations are any guide). Now if we could just get a little sunshine like yesterday.
