Slightly non-balmy ski "weather" at Monarch Mountain

Here.

Excerpt:
The mountain received about 17 inches of additional snow from Friday through 4:30 p.m. Sunday.

Ralph said many skiers and snowboarders were taking breaks and packing the lodge because of the cold weather and wind.

Wind gusts reached 71 miles per hour at 9:34 a.m. Sunday, when the temperature was 7 degrees. The coldest recorded temperature was 9 below zero at 10:34 a.m. Friday.

Ralph said skiers and snowboarders are buying a lot of hot packs and glove liners.
