But Michael Bartone, membership director of the Hidden Valley Club, a semi-private skiing area in Vernon, said club officials were able to build a snowman on Thursday. Exactly one year ago, he remembered that the temperature was 50 degrees.

"It's going to be a really cold and snowy winter." Bartone said.

We've had a few (less than 5) woolys this year.  I don't want ICE!
