grooming supe as i type. they've already covered most of the tower 3 thin areas. good strategy to let it set up with tonite's cold temps so it sets up a bit.

3,500 ft forecast is to be at 25F and 50% humidity for 24 hours, that's 20F wet bulb.

"Snow guns in May" would make a heck of a T-shirt.

That's all good and dandy, but the Tower 3 thin spot isn't at 3,500ft.
