00:00 Tis the skis in my friends.
00:01 If you've been looking forward to ski season,
00:04 well, you don't have to look too much further.
00:06 We've got resource open all over
00:08 the country these days and Aspen
00:10 getting a little help from Mother
00:12 Nature Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
00:13 You can see we've got some snow in your
00:16 actual exclusive forecast all three days,
00:17 especially as we get into Saturday.
00:19 More in the way of snow showers
00:21 rather than a snow shower or two,
00:23 and some flurries temperatures
00:24 in the 30s and 20s.
00:25 That's not all too bad considering
00:27 what time of year it is,
00:28 but it's still cold now into Alta.
00:30 It's a little more of the same
00:32 more into the 20s than the 30s,
00:34 but we keep the snow around
00:35 on Friday and Saturday.
00:36 Also very curious to see what your
00:38 total snowfall is at the end of the year.
00:40 Considering this past year was record setting.
00:42 Again, if you ever heard me say this yet,
00:44 I'm going to say it one more time for you.
00:47 903 inches of snow last year at Alta.
00:49 That's incredible.
00:49 Alright, speaking of incredible,
00:51 incredible news for those of you in
00:52 West Virginia or heading out that way.
00:54 Snowshoe is opening up this weekend.
00:56 Opening day is December 2nd.
00:57 The other incredible news is the rain and
00:59 your equity or exclusive forecast on Friday.
01:01 We've got a storm moving through the
01:02 Northeast and that's going to bring
01:04 some soggy conditions not great for
01:05 the slopes, especially with all the
01:07 snow making that's been done the last
01:08 few weeks, so hopefully they can
01:10 kind of rebound for Saturday.
01:11 But just make sure that you are aware.
01:13 Friday resource not open yet,
01:14 and even still it wouldn't be
01:16 a nice day if it were white face.
01:18 You know what our own Lincoln
01:19 Riddle has been loving the mountain.
01:21 If you've seen him on Twitter,
01:22 you'll see his incredible videos
01:23 up and down the mountainside as
01:25 he skis along here Thursday,
01:26 Friday, Saturday temperatures in the
01:27 40s and then down to the 30s.
01:29 With our incoming storm here,
01:30 that's going to bring more in the way
01:32 of snow to white face on Saturday
01:34 rather than Friday where we get
01:35 that mushy mix. I highly suggest
01:36 if you want a little fresh powder.
01:38 Saturday is your date.
01:39 It's going to be windy though,
01:40 so be careful out there.
