Half and Half.
That can happen at this time of year. Half winter, half spring.
We have 2 conflicting weather forecasts this morning, so lets
look at both, then we'll just have to see who is correct.
First, the Weather Network says it is -5C and the temp will
drop thorough the day to -9C, but they do at least give us
sunshine for the day.
Secondly, the "Official" snow report at http://www.tremblant.ca
indicates that the temps will rise to 0C under partial cloud.
2 forecasts... half winter, half spring... take your pick now,
but at the end of the day, which one will be right?
All the usual Spring condition cautions need to be considered
as the overnight temps will have produced "Fast" "Firm” surfaces
this morning.
Please watch your speed and use proper care and control.
The "Official" report shows 76 open trails this morning, but here
again, that could change during the day as the Mountain crews
adjust for safety and maintenance.
