^^ yeah, I'd say he nailed it honestly

[Name Redacted]

We got at least a foot and a half of wind.

It is windy! And still snowing a bit. It's so nice walking through the snowy woods when it's not yet too deep.

At what point does Abasin typically get lower mountain greens like Wrangler and Sundance open?

Sounds like the focus this year is to get the upper mountain open first then go back to the lower mountain, at least as far as snowmaking efforts are concerned.

10" in Telluride and 15" on Red Mountain Pass. The San Juans did great and it's nearly time to go ski some rocks. I wish my skis weren't in SLC till next week.

I was close to heading to Red Mountain this morning, but am working some OT instead. Kind of wish I went skiing...

Oh I was wrong. I looked at Abasin before they updated the snow report and WP just had a dusting on the webcam I glanced at. I guess Joe was right and I was wrong that he said things would be bigger than they were.

I laughed.

Cause it's true.

[hatchgreenchile]

The NW flow (oh, how I've missed you) kept the cold & light snow going all morning at the Basin.
Lenawee is getting close!

[The SnowShow]

[The SnowShow]

There’s a new guy in town: Seth Linden. His reports on FB remind me more of the CO Powder Forecast from the days of yore.

so like I don't do facebook maybe you can send him an invitation to joint tgr and post here just give him a heads up if he is slightly off on his prediction he will haveto take a boat load of shit in the meantime I'll just keep looking out the window to see what the weather is doing

Except it seems Seth has 0 interest in monetizing his hobby -- guessing his NCAR gig pays decent. His chat at Evergreen Brewery last night was a good time.

[Danno]

Seth's page isn't new either.

[hatchgreenchile]

NOAA, CAIC, Durango Weather Guy, Seth Linden, Chris Tomer, Open Snow, Powderchaser Steve, am I missing any? So many options...

Powderchaser, Tomer and CAIC's Hi-Res WRF Total Snow model are my go tos. YMMV.

OpenSnow is still great, but when the meteorological stars align, I think he trends conservative on totals.

I just go skiing the same place everyday regardless of weather forecast.

Open Snow is probably the best predictor of how fucked traffic will be.
