Snow Reporter Comments: Fine with little wind. The sun is shining and the corduroy is fresh. We’re set for another cracking day at the Peak! With mild morning temps and blue skies overhead, it’s an ideal day to make the most of the great snow conditions before some weather is expected later in the week.
