The first rule of the Storm Forecast is...

[keksie]

YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT THE STORM FORECAST!!!!

I'm talking to you guys in the Wasatch Conditions thread, as well as everyone else around here. You kids want to speculate on storm totals in the PNW, Tahoe, Jackson, the EC, whatever, but quit jinxing my shit!

Seriously, are you people new at this? I thought every Ski Bum knew this?

Posting *antijinx*, wink wink, has the same effect Truth, skunkage.

The only acceptable way to discuss the approaching storm is flat out denial as in "It's not gonna snow. Ever." Ullr takes this as a direct challenge.

Please take note.

Thank you.

bullshit

[Johnny Deep]

I don't understand 90% of what that smarty weatherman says in the wasatch thread and I guess Ullr's eyes will be glazing over too and it will constitute a full antijinx every time he forecasts.

The 'Jinx' shit needs to stay in church along with the 10%. Astrology and skiing just don't mix. And what's up with wiper blades???

[eldercaddy]

Awesome rule! That can be more have awareness for the forecaster of the weather.

[truth]

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR THE WESTERN TWO THIRDS OF
UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A WEAKENING STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING LIGHT SNOW TO MUCH OF NORTHERN
AND WESTERN UTAH TODAY. ANY ACCUMULATION IN THE VALLEYS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN AN INCH OR LESS...WHILE 1 TO 4 INCHES ARE
EXPECTED IN THE MOUNTAINS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

A STRONGER AND MUCH COLDER STORM SYSTEM LOOKS TO IMPACT THE
REGION WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...POTENTIALLY BRINGING HEAVY SNOWFALL
TO THE HIGHER TERRAIN AS WELL AS MOST WESTERN VALLEYS INCLUDING
THE WASATCH FRONT AND I-15 CORRIDOR. ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
HEAVY SNOWFALL...MUCH COLDER AIR WILL ACCOMPANY THIS SYSTEM...WITH
DAYTIME HIGHS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY STRUGGLING TO REACH THE 20S
ACROSS THE WESTERN VALLEYS...AND OVERNIGHT LOWS FALLING INTO THE
SINGLE DIGITS IF NOT BELOW ZERO.

The black dot in the comic here represents your giant fucking head.

The weather doesn't give a shit that you post on the internets

[Lone Star]

check the Cottonwood Canyons forecast!!!

Total accumulation late Tuesday night through Friday of 2-4 feet with 1-2 inches water.

we could get 48 inches of 2% cooollllddddd smoke!!!!

[neckdeep]

No, I'm using these psychic powers to jinx the Wasatch and track the flow to the Tetons. I already took out Beaterdit with a voodoo doll. Excuse me, I have a goat to disembowel.

You type like a 15 year old girl, better run upstairs and ask Mom about a couple things we like to call "punctuation" and "grammar". Now GTFO and don't come back. Unless you are in fact a 15 year old girl, in that case, come back in three years with naked pics.

Figures you're a telemarker.

/snicker

Fuck.

I can't ski anyway so that's why it's gonna snow.

Your welcome.

beyond this little bit of irony is coming on a ski forum to get stoked and talk about skiing and then starting a thread about other people's magical powers to make it not snow merely by typing about it on a web site.

Are you going to all the other websites and asking them nicely not to talk about weather as well?

seems to me an incoming storm is exactly what you talk about on a ski forum with other skiers...

but I guess mother nature gives a shit about the wasatch thread seein' how utah is the center of the universe...

talking about storms in the tahoe thread hasn't really been detrimental this season's all I'm sayin'

[Lone Star]

A JONG with no sense of humor, big surprise.

Enjoy it since you are already up there.

I predict an LCC road closure or 3, causing massive attitude skiers, er Alta and Bird skiers to head up the other canyon, causing massive clusterfuckness. Don't forget the power issues in BCC and getting stuck on the lifts yet again.
Those interlodged later tonight will be in heaven tomorrow.

I'm either going to work or head north, out of the clusterfuck of the Cottonwoods.



This, of course, all depends on what my handy dandy iPhone tells me in the am.

[Buzzworthy]

Big Cottonwood Status: Open
Little Cottonwood Status: Closed Dec29: The road in Little Cottonwood Canyon will close at 2:30pm for avalanche control work. Est opening time is 4:45pm -CanyonAlerts.org
