Let it snow: Snow Reports for iPhone
It's late October in ski country, and that means skiers and snowboarders are getting their gear ready, trying to get into shape, and starting to watch the skies for signs of snow. Snow Reports, from Eddit Incorporated, provides the ability to create your own personalized lists of your favorite ski resorts, and then track the snow conditions and weather at those resorts. Snow Reports can access information for over 2,000 ski areas around the world through OnTheSnow.com's online service.
Ski areas are listed by region and state or province, and a tap on a state or province name provides a detailed list of all the resorts in that area. A red or green "Closed / Open" sign provides immediate feedback on whether a resort is ready for visitors, and an attractive interface provides base and new snow depths.
A quick tap on the resort page displays a full condition report for a ski area, or upcoming weather conditions. A video is available demonstrating highlights of Snow Reports, as well as a Flickr pool of screenshots.
Snow Reports (click opens iTunes) is available now for US$1.99.

Shameless plug.
Also check out the original Snow Report in the App Store:

Another shameless plug.
Snocator just hit the app store yesterday, and it's the only iPhone app you need as a skier or snowboarder.
It's got everything: snow reports, weather, live mountain cams, surface conditions etc....BUT, it's got something the others don't: Interactive trail maps that let you find exactly where you are on the mountain. No other app has this, and it works a charm.
Check it out at www.snocator.com or go to the app store:
