About this forecast
Massanutten Resort is a ski resort in Virginia with a base at 1,600 ft and a summit at 2,880 ft, 1,280 ft of vertical. This page checks NOAA's hourly forecast at the base and the summit every time you load it and works out the wet-bulb temperature, which is what decides whether snow guns can run. Snowmakers can start below 28°F−2°C wet-bulb, and make good snow below 25°F−4°C.
