anyone go up to loveland today? is it still snowing there?
I went to Loveland today- not much new snow during the day, but I heard it started dumping later in the afternoon. They opened up a few more runs, but nothing significant. They should be opening the Chair 6 terrain in the next few days.
Anyone know what might open at Breck for tomorrow?
Reports anyone? Montanagirl? What is WP doing?
I am staying in WP starting on Dec 18th.....and at this rate (of Tahoe suckyness) that might be the first skiing I get......so I am rooting hard for CO storms!!!! Bring it.
Full on nuke mode up in Wildernest...
Well damn, I think I'm going to have to make the drive up tomorrow morning.
its hammering in WP now. i skinned up above the lifts for some decent turns today.Quote:

We got a crew caravaning down to Wolf Creek tonight at 3:30am to get the real goods if anyone wants to join up....
complete skunkage thus far on Monarch Pass. I am restraining myself from a total fucking temper tantrum right now...
can someone with a better understanding of meteorology explain to me how it can be 100% humidity, 18 degrees and not snowing?
you should go to weather school to learn more. maybe that would prevent a temper tantrum
100% relative humidity means that the air has reached its saturation point for this temperature (as it concerns water vapour). most likely at 100% relative humidity clouds will form, however it does not necessarily mean that it is going to rain or snow. now if you lower the temperature of the air that is already at 100% humidity quickly, say, by pushing it upwards, you will likely get rain/snow...Quote:

If anyone is going up from Boulder, has room in their car and wants to save me from risking I-70 in my crappy fwd car, hit me up (compensation in the form of gas $ and/or beer), otherwise I will hopefully make it up there!
I don't take many pics inbounds around here. Especially, in the type of weather we had today.Quote:

Anyone ski Vail today? It looks like they opened up most of the front side, with over 1,000 acres now open. That's awfully tempting...
I was going to, but then reconsidered because of the road conditions. I didn't want to have to come back over vail pass when it was nuking. It ended up being a good decision I guess, looks like I-70 east was/is closed at vail pass due to accidents.Quote:

Complete and utter whitout up top all day. Wind was crazy. Tomorrow is gonna be SWEET. The bottom of the mtn was weak sauce. Up top was where it was at, rumor that more terrain will open tomorrow, I say you should all go to Breck. The roads are too bad i think.Quote:
