Hi, Alex is on days off, so the relief has called the temps down to the reservation office. The high yesterday was -5 and the low -9. It was -8 at about 8:30 this morning. He had 5 inches of fresh snow yesterday for a total of 21 inches. Hwy 441, Newfound Gap Road is closed due to snow and ice. Cherokee Orchard Road is open. You can call 865-436-1200 to check on road closures in the Park.
