“I had never heard of this until now. Maybe it has to do with the rate of snowfall. There was enough of it to work with.”
Bill Barrett
“Last year, coming into February and March we had real strong snowfall through the end of the season and this year we didn't have that. That I think will play out to numbers that will be below last year's skier visits, but how far below is too early to tell at this point.”
Parker Riehle
“When we see heavy snowfall like we saw [Monday], we see an increased number of medical calls.”
Ron Reier
“If it wasn't for that unexpected heavy snowfall we received early last week, the turnout for this event may not have been so good. We were just thrilled to see so many people come out to support the shelter in questionable trail conditions.”
Sharon Priebe
“Clearly, we have plenty of mechanisms for clearing snow [but not] off the tops of buses after a heavy snowfall.”
Dan Stessel
“The big difference would be if we had a catastrophic snowfall after the Super Bowl. It might take longer to clear that because we wouldn't have the overtime left.”
Al Fields
“Last year was particularly mild. This year is closer to normal snowfall. I wouldn't be overly concerned with the late spring snowmelt causing flooding.”
