Our local ski resort is opening today - we had a storm that lasted two and a half days and dumped a lot of snow up there. The road up the mountain just opened I think yesterday, so the skiers and snowboarders are quite happy. Meanwhile, down here in the valley, it's hitting the low 60s today before the next storm comes through over the weekend.

We've got sunny and cold again today, the high ought to make it to 32. But the wind has quit, so that's a nice change. Like you, Jabber and Yonuh, the local ski resorts have opened, but they are having to make snow.

Still, I bet it would be a FABULOUS day to be skiing, were I into that these days. (Haven't been since a badly wrenched knee from a ski fall about 25 years ago. Doubt I will ever take this up again. But I have nothing against watching OTHER PEOPLE ski from the comfort of the chalet.)

The mountain here is up and running, tons of skiers up there and we've had little snow but they are cranking it out. I love the chalet at the top, hot toddys, snacks and a huge fire pit to toast your cold tootsies. Probably won't make it up there this year and will miss the trip but I'm still too wobbly on my feet to be fooling around in snow.

Chatty,
I pray you get stronger and stronger and better than new, asap!
WB and I live in what they call the southerntier around here. We're not far from the area's major ski resorts. I love those mountain chalet's, too. I love the smell of woodburing stoves. I love the taste of marsh mallows and hot chocolate. It's okay with me that there's little snow on the ground. I'm fine with it!

Freezing fog this morning in the Pacific Northwest. I've posted a couple of photos on my blog: Frosty Photos
There's plenty of snow for the skiers at Crystal (Mount Rainier) and the Summit at Snoqualmie, but no new snowfall either place for a couple of days. Here in the lowlands, it's warmer.

We've a dusting of snow from this morning. But the weathermen are not calling for any significant build up. It doesn't bother me! I'm as happy as a puppy with a new toy. But the skiers and snowmobilers aren't overjoyed about it. They're complaining big-time.

Hey Sandy N.; R U on FB? If so, how about linking? Please PM me if this interests U!!!

32 degrees and cloudy, but so far no snow. If we do get any today, it will be just a dusting. Steve and I leave Christmas Day for Madison, and I think the forecast is clear and dry until later in the week. Hopefully we'll stay dry until AFTER we return. THEN it can snow all it wants, and I will be delighted to sit at my desk, look out the window and watch it!

Happy holidays, everyone, whether you are celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, or something else!

I'm with you, Anne. I enjoy walking in the snow (used to ski), but I just plain won't drive in it. Sitting by a nice fire, watching big flakes fall, is my favorite way to enjoy snow.

Over 40" snow up on the mountain - high today down here in the valley was 46 and windy. I think the wind chill was somewhere in the 30s and another hard freeze predicted for tonight. But it will be in the 60s again next week. I'm not used to the cold weather and don't like it. If it's this cold, there had better be snow!!
