High pressure is shifting to the east and a cold storm is on the door step. In the mean-time, skies are clear, temperatures in the low teens, and southwest winds starting increasing around 3:00 this morning, currently blowing 20-30 mph along the high ridges. Most of our big, open, upper elevation bowls took a hard hit from Tuesdays wind, but lose a little elevation and you'll be treated to premium riding and turning conditions.
