If you look at forcasts for the cascades (baker, rainier etc) it's claiming that they will get a couple of feet of snow in the next few days, and as i've been checking all summer, it seems like it constantly snows. How true is this? If it is, why isn't everyone up there skiing? Could I drive up to Wa tomorrow and ski pow? Just curious.
No.Quote:

ha i'm not actually going to do it, just wondering why everyone's not skiing pow 12 months a year up there. just saw a forecast for 2 feet of snow above 6000 feet.
It could very well snow, but it won't stay pow for long. And you must be smoking something strong if you've seen forecasts for snow throughout the summer. Also, the access bar is pretty high to get where the appreciable pow will be. But by all means, go get it.

BEND, OR - Laura the Skiwoman smiles as snow covered Mt. Bachelor yesterday, which is a hopeful sign that winter ski lifts will soon be running in the West. The snow line appeared to be 7,500 feet according to the folks at Mt. Bachelor. This is an El Niño year that usually includes severe winter storms in California and the West Coast.http://www.tetongravity.com/ubb/icons/icon14.gif

I was going to load up the sleds and try to get to 6000... but then I realized that I was a retard for beliving the DOT, they are kinda hit and miss, didnt see any white stuff on stuart and its pushing 9500 ft. Looked at crystal summit cam and a few others and didnt see anything...
Cliff Mass thinks it's not going to be a good snow year: http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2009/0...pass-this.html.
"During El Nino winters the Northwest tends to be warmer than normal and a bit drier than normal (see figures). Cascade snowpack tends to be less."
I'm really hoping Cliff Mass is completely wrong. He sometimes is.
Humbolt squids seen off Or/Wa coast because of warm ocean temps.Crap
sounds like we may have to get some road trips in this winter....
yeah, the ocean has been pretty warm the last few weeks.. in the 60s off the oregon coast. but that could be a short term trend. who knowsQuote:

I didnt see anything on this so Ive got to ask: I have a Davis VP2 and use Weather Display, not VWS. How do I go about configuring it to transmit data to HAMWeather/W4U? Thanks
