Anything this early is a flat out bonus. No jinxing occurs before the witching hour.

I meant he's just 'practicing' for the upcoming season.

And sorry Odin, WA gets more snow than OR.
Just sayin'

were selfish bastards like that.

**ptavv** · 09-27-2007, 12:25 PM

I'm leaving town this weekend, so it makes sense that snow is coming.

**Eldo** · 09-27-2007, 12:26 PM

Damn, that also means more snow for the Cnd Rockies.

This is threatening to ruin some bike rides I have planned.

We call it persistent weak layer, depth hoar, or avy burial here in Utah.

I'm just commenting on Powder11's profound love of the antijinx button the past couple of seasons. Sure, early season depth hoar wrecks havoc in many places (especially Rockies)- but in the PNW & BC at the higher elevations where there is snow year round- and coastal snowpack- it's not quite as profound.

Preseason epoxy.

New snow at Big White this morning. How much was there at Whistler or any of the WA areas?

not sure, but it theres a noticable snowline at @ 1500 meters give or take. temps dropped quite a bit this afternoon. if we get some more precip over the weekend it should start to add up. the forecast looks downright depressing for people working outside or someone suffering from S.A.D.

Im still saving my antijinx mojo for those god damn red sox!
