That’s the problem with top-to-bottom openings… the base area runout is usually the hold-up at 1500-1800ft elevation. While above 2,500ft looks like this. How much snow can they make on a cold night?

powderfreak Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 16 minutes ago, DavisStraight said: How much snow can they make on a cold night? It's hard to say but its usually measured in acre feet. There are so many variables that go into it, but production with many of the low-e guns maxes out in the 12-14F degree range. Lower teens is sort of the sweet spot for pumping water with very little compressed air. It's really just water and air combinations, like when its warmer you are heavy on air and light on water (thus not making much snow)... while colder temps are heavy on water and light on air (more QPF/more snow, ha). You can do feet in a pile overnight at 10-15F. The irony is that it can get too cold and you start losing water to evaporation and into the air at a certain temperature... some of the crystals don't have enough mass to fall to the ground and get suspended in the air. You get the big snowmaking cloud over a mountain, which is essentially water that isn't finding the ground. You still produce plenty of snow but you are losing some of the water to the atmosphere at those single digits and lower temps. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariof Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Unclear whether Wawa has been putting out snow last night / tonight. Should be cold enough, but they might be looking at next week and figuring it would just wind up back in the pond before they could get a weekend day out of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did last night on Conifer at least (saw it from Rte 2) and tonight. Some of it will melt for sure but some should survive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwt3650 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I would think any mountains planning to open in November that aren’t blowing snow right now need to get their shiat together Everyone is on tonight, even down to the Poconos, which probably won’t open until December.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And … just like that their FB page shows them making snow. Not sure if that were last night or tonight, but if they blew last night, they're def blowing tonight.

#NoPoles Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I have no idea what Attitash has planned. They closed at the end of the ski season and did not open for summer so they could replace one of their chair lifts. They usually open in December and that is less than a month away and there has been barely any progress on the new lift. I wonder if they are staying closed this winter? @powderfreakhave you heard anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
