Snow height: 11cm
We got only sleet last night. Trails should be rock skiable. Good skiing at Queensbury and Kensington schools, while it lasts. Check back Thurs. for conditions post thaw.
Merry Christmas!

It rained all day...
Somehow we have 9cm of snow left in the yard and no bare patches yet, the ground is probably so saturated the snow had nowhere to go... haven't had a chance to look at the trails, but being under trees and having been groomed, most likely are no longer skiable.
At least the temps are dropping below freezing now, and the next few days there is a chance for a little snow every day.

PM Thaw Report
Air Temperature: 0C
Rel. Humidity: 93%
Snow Height: 20cm
Snow Type: Mushy
Weather: Clearing
This morning woke up to ice everywhere. Then we got up to +5C and pouring rain this morning. Temperature has dropped and things are starting to refreeze, with most of the snow intact and compacted. Please do not ski the trails until they are refrozen, otherwise there'll just be big ruts that won't come out.

AM Thaw Report

Rel . Humidity: 93%
Snow Height: 11cm
Snow Type: Icy

So far so good. The entire night stayed at or slightly below freezing! Forecast is for some light rain and rising temperatures, but if we make it past today then it's a hard freeze and we keep what we have. Heading out to check out the trails...

PM Thaw Report
Temperature: -0.2C
Snow Height: 12cm
It looks like it wasn't as bad as the forecast. It has stayed below freezing the entire day. Only light rain to mist only. Temperatures are still predicted to rise through the evening, but not as high as previously predicted and forecasted high keeps dropping or pushing out in time. So cross your fingers. Will post tomorrow AM how the trails look.

That's about all we need to know... not down to zero yet despite an entire night of rain. We had freezing rain for the latter part of the night, there is ice everywhere. Today will be the worst of it, up to 11C and raining most of the day. I'll check out the trail tomorrow AM, look back for a report.
Again, no new grooming since packed snow will only lead to puddles and with the hard refreeze coming Tue. all we'll have is ice. Hope is that the rain is absorbed in the current snow, the porous snow will then be groomable come Tuesday.

Thaw Report Day 2
Air Temperature: 1.3C
Relative Humidity: 93%
Snow Height: 18cm
Weather: Overcast
Snow Type: Melting!
Day 2 of 3 of above zero and rain in the forcast. Trails were groomed and track set on Thursday, there will be no additional grooming until we get through the thaw as the snow can absorb more rain without additional grooming, and thus hopefully hold up through the thaw.
