Last weekend was sick at Squaw! Waist deep down to the Fingers, which were filled in nicely. No traverse cutting through the landing area. Take off... feel the speed... landed softly as if I never left the air, heard the hollers from the chair lift. Repeat. Solid.
Oh wait... that was last night dream... :(
No, it's going to get blocked by a dick named Rex, whole will push it up to canada, then bring it back home to the great plains in a week.Quote:

BY SPRING, WARMING HIGHER LATTS WILL MOST LIKELY BREAK UP THE HUDSON BAY ANCHOR AND WEAKEN WEST COAST RIDGE FOR BENIFICAL PRECIP, ESPECIALLY IF THE RATE OF THE DECAY OF THE POSITIVE PHASE ENSO CONTINUES.
FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS....IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE VERY COLD EAST OF THE ROCKIES.... AND MILD OUT WEST......THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT WEAKENING OF WEST COAST RIDGE LATER NEXT WEEK AS AN EASTWARD SHIFT IN THE HUDSON BAY LOW CREATES SOME OPENING OF THE WAVE LENGTH AND ALLOWS ((((THE CHANCE-NOT CERTAIN)))) FOR SOME WARM ADVECTION TYPE SNOWFALL IN THE HIGH COUNTRY ABOUT THE 8TH THROUGH THE 12TH. I WILL SAY, THAT WELL OUT IN THE PACIFIC, THERE ARE SEVERAL "LARGE STORMS" CONNECTED WITH GOOD SUBTROPICAL TAPS. SO IF THE UPPER WEST COAST RIDGE DOES WEAKEN ENOUGH, THERE IS A LOT OF MOISTURE THAT CAN MOVE ON IN. THIS COULD BRING SIGNIFACANT SNOWFALL IF IT OCCURS......HOWEVER, IT WOULD NOT REFLECT A CHANGE IN THE OVERALL DROUGHT PATTERN. AS IN MY OPINION, THE UNDER PINNING FORCING FOR THE CURRENT PATTERN IS GLOBAL AND NOT SYNOPTIC
Let's start rubbing those balls!Quote:

LONGER RANGE NOW MORE CONSISTANT WITH A SERIES OF SHORT WAVE TROFS CARVING OUT A LONG WAVE TROF, OFF THE WEST COAST BEGINNING ABOUT THE 20TH......THIS GETS ACCOMPLISHED AS A SURFACE BOMB OR SUPER BOMB OFF THE COAST OF JAPAN THAT REALLY CRANKS UP THE DOWN STREAM RIDGE THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF NEXT WEEK....BY THE 21ST, A COLD STORM LOADED WITH POWDER HEADS INTO MAMMOTH. THE UPPER FLOW LOOKS TO BE VERY CONSOLIDATED DURING THAT PATTERN.
AGAIN....THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 20TH LOOKS PRETTY GOOD FOR YOU POWDER HOUNDS, ESPECIALLY THE SECOND HALF. SO GET THE FAT BOYS READY AND WAXED....MAKE YOUR TENTATIVE PLANS TO PLAY HOOKIE FROM WORK THE 2ND HALF OF NEXT WEEK.....IT MAY BE THE BEST POWDER WEEK OF THE YEAR OR SHOULD I SAY FEBRUARY....AS ACCORDING TO LONGEST RANGE GUIDENCE.....MARCH NOW LOOKS TO ROAR IN LIKE A LION.
Now you've gone and done it...Quote:

I knew there had to be a ski that fit that...Legends?
POURING rain in SF and Marin. Cars hydroplaning everywhere. That is all.
its been snowing hard in truckee fore about three or four hours. cold snow. leaving for the mtn now. thinking its too cold and going to be doc, but hey, we dont get storm days in california any more so its still a special day.
OK, I'll ditch the sig line later today. My version of an anti-jinx. :FIREdevil
NOAA says .18" moisture so far at the base of Alpine, which probably translates to about 2-3". And the winds are blowing hard enough that nothing higher than Roundhouse is open (i.e., not just Summit, but also Lakeview, Scott, and Sherwood).
Tomorrow! Tomorrow!Quote:

Just talked to Sinecure, who reports pukage in Truckee.
I know tahoe is getting this one, the question is how much will tahoe get, and even more important, will those high winds plague us again and wash all the fresh stuff into the drains.
Ich wunder?
This is a normal westerly wind.Quote:
