Saturday morning has dawned with an amazing range of temperatures and conditions. The good news seems to be that the Lake Placid - Saranac Lake - High Peaks area will miss most of the severe icing. The bad news is that temperatures are in the 40s with some rain, so by Sunday afternoon we will have lost much of the snow that we had. It also does not appear we will get much new snow as this weather system exits. Temperatures will cool as of Monday and be below zero Tuesday night before warming to seasonal normals by the end of the week with a chance of some light snow.
Given that conditions are changing so rapidly, no full report until Monday when the storm has passed. In the meantime, think of the irony of the Saranac Lake Ultra Sixer challenge. The first day for the summer challenge was Memorial Day when participants had to deal with over a foot of snow. On the first day of the winter challenge by contrast, rain is the main problem.
