I'm not so sure. I can't find snow in photos from other cameras (e.g., Snowbird Hidden Peak), I can't see it when I look at Lone Peak from my office, and the temperature at the top of the Collins lift has gotten no lower than 39ºF, which is quite marginal for snow to stick. Rumor has it that the Sugarloaf camera image often suggests there's snow on the ground. What do you think?
Noaa slc claims it is snow....only one way to find out!
ReplyDeleteThey could be wrong. The latest (2:55 PM) image still suggests there is snow on the ground, but it is now into the low 40s. Not all that one sees in images can be trusted.
ReplyDeleteI doubt there is snow on the ground based on the temperature time series up there and other cameras showing nothing at the same elevation elsewhere. If you look now, it is sunny and the whiteness looks even more amplified, which has me thinking it is an optical phenomena such as glare off of the wet rocks.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the hotter and sunnier it gets, the snowier it looks! If only the real world worked that way...
DeleteMaybe someone should inform the WFO so they take that story down from their homepage.
Delete"snow" was falling up in grizzly gulch tonight. i say "snow" because it was really very light/dry rain, but it did occasionally blow around rather than fall straight down, and thats enough for me. im talking VERY little here, but its the thought that counts
