February 26 - new snow coming

Today is Day 66 of skiing this season.
We have survived 3 days of very warm weather and still have a good snow base on our trails. New snow has now begun to fall, and is expected to continue all day and tonight. Ski conditions are already improved, with just a couple of centimeters of new snow over the old hard-packed base. Things should continue to get better as the day progresses. The forecasts suggest we will probably receive a total of about 20 cm. Assuming that happens, then I will begin grooming when the snow depth reaches about 10 cm, so that we get good compaction of the new snow, in two passes.
Driving conditions will not be good today; perhaps it's best to wait until tomorrow to come skiing.
