Four to six in the forecast

Well, this is sweet. The National Weather Service is calling for 4 to 6 inches tonight and Saturday at higher elevations. And the Service is suggesting that "travelers should take extra precautions as this is the first appreciable snow of the season." And they are warning that "hunters camping in the backcountry should plan on cold and wet conditions and dress appropriately." Temps are going to be in the upper 20s through the 30s. Cool. Here comes winter. It is always nice when it dumps before Halloween. Gets the whole ski town machinery lubed up. - BGS
