    NOAA Climate Predictions

    These are always fun to look at, but you certainly can't rely on them that much. Last year for the Feb/Mar/Apr '04 precipitation forecast the maps showed all of Colorado with above normal precip., and as we all know, we got screwed. Maybe things will be different this year with the weak El Nino system I keep hearing about. It can't be worse.....right?

    This is the difference between 35 degree rain and 30 degree snow for me. Bring it, you weak El Nino bitch!

    So ready for the season, currently 68 degrees here. I love the hearing the words "unseasonably cool temperatures".

    I love seeing that above normal color over my home hills - keeping fingers crossed.

    Edit: - just realized that one is temperature, the section of above average that this one is showing for temperature matches perfectly with another map I saw that shows the same area for above average snowfall.

    Looks like normal weather for UT which means 500'ish inches around LCC. Where else would you be speaking of "where skiing actually matters"?
