Some isolated areas got 6-8″, and broad swaths of western New York State got 4-6″.

How’s the skiing?

No great turnaround but in places that had a good base and received some snow, things got better. The trails are groomed a bit more or are a bit smoother to ski. Hit up ‘State of the touring centers‘ or in the menu above for reported conditions as of today. Snow depth graphuic below:
