Conditions 2/28-29 and at least some hope

2/28/2016

As reported previously, the only skiing is around Paul Smiths and Newcomb, but that is reasonably good skiing on the flatter, smoother terrain.  Sunday night and Monday will see some light precipitation that will likely be freezing rain.  Then we can look forward to Wednesday!  At the moment, the forecasts are varied and range from sleet and some snow at the end to a total of 5-8" of snow by Thursday morning.  Given this range, the next update will be Thursday, 3/3 after we know what actually happened.  

Meanwhile, checking today determined that Meadow Lane, the approach to the Marcy Dam Truck Trail, had 1/4" of snow on ice.  It was skiable, but just barely.  Approaching the register for the truck trail, the snow became intermittent with gaps continuing past the register.  Your reporter didn't investigate further, but there are likely additional gaps on any south-facing section heading to Marcy Dam.
