Hunter skiing & weather Jan 27

Hi All,
We only received a dusting to an inch of snow - maybe 2" on top of the mtn. Today was mostly overcast with flat light although the sun did peek through for a few moments this am. The temp held steady at 27 and there was a slight breeze with some stronger gusts and a few flurries earlier. It is a damp cool day. The skiing I was told was excellent (thanks GM) on a very well groomed consistent edgeable base. Snow making has commenced on the steep slopes. It doesn't look like much sun for the weekend and temps will remain in the low 20's during the day per below forecast. The police racers wind it up today, freestyle competition begins on Saturday and the firemen are here next week. I still can't get my foot in a ski boot so until then........
