Above-Freezing Air Temperature Still Offers Chance of Snow—Sometimes Recent snowfall across the Rockies has me jonesing for ski season. Unfortunately, August in the midwest spells 90-degree temps and high humidity. If we’re extremely lucky, the earliest snowfall won’t be till late October, and ski season won’t start until the middle of November. So we’re still a ways off. But snow can fall even if it’s above 32 degrees, […] Brains Joseph Puetz | August 27, 2021 1 Comment
Evaporative Cooling: What It Is and Why It’s So Important At the end of the day, in skiing, physics is everything. It determines what kind of snow falls, what consistency it is, and how it changes over time once it has fallen on the ground. One big concept that factors into these processes is evaporative cooling. In this article, we’ll look at what evaporative cooling is and why it’s so important. Essentially, […] Brains Clay Malott | May 21, 2021 0 Comments
