Tuesday January 6 Conditions Improving

It's -11 and breezy out there, with occasional light flurries. What we've been left with after the warmth and rain and then a return to cold temperatures is about 5 cm of icy crust, topped by about 2 cm of fresh powder. The crust, however, is not uniform, having been walked on and skied on before the cold returned.
I've been out with the groomer, breaking the crust and smoothing out the lumps and humps. This will make a decent base for any new snow that comes. 4 or 5 cm of new snow would give us nice ski conditions.
The forecast is predicting snow squalls with up to 10-15 cm of accumulation. But will they come? Who knows?
