Well, that's it for my meadows season this year unless I make it out this spring. Took one spectacularly abysmal run down HRM with approx 4 turns. Brutal up there today, but I got some pretty wicked days over the last month.
Goodbye and good show meadows. Enjoy the rest of the winter you lucky bastards.

High winds and weather are affecting lift ops. Buttercup and Carpet are the only lifts open at this time. All other lifts on weather standby, but may open if conditions improve. Mixed bag of rain, sleet, snow, and high winds.

Maybe I'm just getting a little eager...
but has anyone ever gone up on a day with rain at the base and snow up top? Is it any fun if you stick up high (cascade and upper heather)? The wind at the moment is another story, so take it as a hypothetical...

Spot forecasts are just extrapolations and are no more accurate than a zone forecast. It's like significant digits in math. You can't manufacture accuracy through calculation.

That's what you get. Freezing level, wind direction and speed, and forecast precip for the zone.

Your leaving will be a true loss to the meadows community. We need more like you who live with their parents and claim core status cause you claim runs and "grew up here." Hopefully we can find another whiney little bitch to take your place.
Your parents say they don't want your freeloading ass back for spring break, so just stay put junior!

Avalanche warning
http://www.kgw.com/news/Avalanche-wa...113481724.html
SEATTLE (AP) -- The Washington State Avalanche Center is warning of a high avalanche danger Thursday in the Washington Olympics, Cascades and the Mount Hood area of Oregon.
The center says winds and rains could weaken layers of snow. The center says the danger should lessen Friday but increase again Saturday with more warming, winds and rain in the forecast.
The warning covers backcountry terrain and does not apply to ski areas.

There are no secret lines in PR, but he got called out for getting all local while he was home visiting his parents. He announced his arrival, described every run in detail, then gave us our mountain back in his departing words. Good riddance.
