As an avid skiier, but native to the East Coast, the frustrations of ice on slopes are palpable. Because the East Coast ski industry can't depend on natural snow, snow-making is essential to operating ski resorts. This makes the air temperature extremely important to the ski experience.
This site intends to provide an ice report. It determines this by calculating the number of times the high temperature for each day has exceeded the melting point of snow (32 deg F). If the number of exceedences is zero, then the slopes should be relatively ice free! If the weather hasn't cooperated precisely, the table will rank the resorts by the number of days above freezing (descending) and week's sum of degrees the high temperature was over snow's melting point (ascending).
