Greetings and welcome!

Not much changed on Tuesday. The day was mixed clouds and sun and it stayed in the low 20s.

Looking ahead is scary. My view from here is that we will be ok for the weekend, but then it is not so good.

There is some very warm air coming for today and Thursday. At the 850MB level (~3,000′) the NAM is showing +10C, or 50F air. In theory the atmosphere is somewhat stratified, so we won’t have a lot of mixing between levels, and hopefully the bulk of the 10C air won’t find it’s way to the surface.

The NWS forecast discussion brings up an interesting point that might save our weekend. They suggest that since we will have surface winds from the south and there is snow cover all of the way to Tulsa, the surface winds might not be quite as warm as they would otherwise be.

Also in our favor is the relatively short length of day. We are less than a month off of the winter solstice, giving us both a shorter peak thaw time and a shallower sun angle than happens in late season thaws.

If it all works out in our favor, the next four days will stay within a couple of degrees of freezing. The NWS forecast does not go over the mid-30s until Tuesday. If that holds true we should be fine to ride the weekend. Having it hit 35 for a few hours a day is hardly a disaster.  We have a good base and decent conditions in most areas, it should be able to handle that.

Next week looks less than ideal. The temps look to stay above 32 most of the week, and there is rain possible about Thursday and Saturday-Tuesday. The weekend storm could end as snow, and there is another storm behind that one that could start wet and end white.

At the moment we are in pretty good shape. There is a good ice base almost  system wide, and most trails are in good shape. Some spots have snirty snow, thin spots, or icy spots, but generally conditions are good considering that we have seen little snow since Christmas.
