Hunter powder skiing Jan 12

Hi all,
Mother nature provided some 10"- 12" of very sweet dry powder this am just in time for an early mid-week opening at 8:45. The scenery again was nothing less than a picture postcard with everything coated by a pristine white snow. The temp went from 16 to 22 now and although it is still snowing lightly it is much brighter as the sun tries to come out. The winds fortunately never really became a factor as predicted. The crowds were well spread out and lift lines were minimal. The roads still need alot of work but they are quite passable. With good grooming tonight, tomorrow could be a sensational day to ski or ride. Skiing was sweet for about 45 mins before the hounds chopped it all up and then it became quite bumpy / clumpy but still light powder. There were no bad or even marginal trails today - it was all good!
Ski ya soon, http://hunterskiscene.blogspot.com/

First Warning Forecast
Snow will continue to fall heavily at times into the late morning hours, mainly East of the Hudson River Valley and into Berkshire County. Lighter snow will fall elsewhere before winding down quickly thru midday into this afternoon. Storm total accumulations can be found on the map below. It will be windy and cold as well today with blowing and drifting snow and highs in the lower to mid 20's.

There will be scattered snow showers behind the storm tonight and mostly cloudy skies tomorrow. It will be windy and cold with overnight lows tonight in the teens and highs in the mid 20's tomorrow.

Less wind is expected Friday but it will be dry and cold. Highs will reach only into the lower 20's under mostly cloudy skies.

Right now it looks like there is a chance for some light snow late Saturday and Saturday night, otherwise skies will be mostly cloudy over the weekend with highs in the mid 20's.
