    Kirkwood Forecast...

    Keep your fingers crossed for next week!!!!

    ************

    --Discussion...Temperatures below are forecast for the peaks and the base, with highs and lows for both. Yesterday's Low/ High_Caples Lake (7,800' and just up the road from Kirkwood); 32/ 37, Similar to the Top; 24/ 30.

    --OVERALL SITUATION TODAY>>> Chilly and showery with some west winds as low pressure is on its last leg across the northwest US. Moisture decreases today, and scattered snow showers continue tonight. Light snow accumulation is expected above 7,000 feet, and mostly at 7,500 feet and higher.

    --TOMORROW THROUGH 6 DAYS>>> Saturday - Isolated snow showers in the morning, then clearing fast with partly cloudy skies under a fast moving "zonal" wind flow pattern.

    Sunday, Monday - Eastern Pacific high pressure ridges in aloft with warming and drying expected.

    Tuesday - High pressure starts weakening, with warm temperatures and west winds developing in the afternoon.

    Wednesday and Thursday - A fairly strong early season low pressure system (storm) moves in with scattered to numerous snow showers developing, and snow down to the valley floor (lake level, near 6,000 feet). A stronger and colder looking storm may hit next weekend (Sat - Mon, 5th - 7th) with significant snowfall possible base to top...we will be watching.

    PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR MORE DETAILED DAILY WIND, TEMPERATURE, PRECIP, CONDITIONS...CM.

    Man, this weekend is not looking good for Tahoe mountain biking. 37 degrees… that is cold.

    C'mon guys, we all know that this year is going to blow beyond all that blow...I did wash my car last tuesday, that seemed to help.

    Oops and Poops = lame.

    Slim has some new 916's to test out on the lower steeps of Bunny this year.

    doooods.....I'm immune to the jinx...my new knee has anti-jinx skills built in.

    Besides the 5th - 7th I'm away at the conference I go to for work every year around this time and It always snows while I'm away and KW is opened upon my return. It's just the way things work around here ya'know?

    I'll jinx it so it doesn't start snowing until late November when I am set to return from my probable month-long trip to Houston.

    I got your best anti-jinx for this season....

    I'm limited by doctors orders to...

    Groomers.
    Keeping skis (ptex side down) in contact with the snow
    Speeds "low"
    and
    absolutely and positively taking no risks.

    You know it's going to snow like a mofo until I'm off of restriction.
