    RIDGE. THIS SYSTEM WILL ALSO HAVE A SUB-TROPICAL MOISTURE TAP FROM
    THE WESTERN PACIFIC...SO SNOW LEVELS WILL REMAIN HIGH WITH THE MOIST
    SOUTHWEST FLOW.

    WEDNESDAY COULD BE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY AS A TROUGH BREAKS OFF
    THE LOW AND DIGS INTO THE WEST COAST. EURO AND GFS LOWER HEIGHTS TO
    5580 METERS AND BELOW. GFS IS COLDER AND DEEPER...WITH A THERMAL
    PROFILE THAT WOULD DROP SNOW LEVELS TO 3500-4000 FEET. THINKING IS
    THE GFS IS ON THE COLD SIDE...BUT THE EURO DOES SUPPORT SNOW LEVELS
    DROPPING DOWN TO 4500-5000 FEET. ADDED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS TO THE
    ENTIRE FORECAST AREA FOR WEDNESDAY FOR THE TROUGH/COLD FRONT.
    Cross your fingers.

    Incidentally, Mammoth's website says they started blowing on the 26th. Heavenly said they started blowing the 25th. The Dipper cam has a bit of coverage:
