Snow in the PNW 2019-20

Wasn’t the whole point of all that snowmaking to avoid this.

Looking at the temps over the last seven days it would have been mostly just watering the grass.

Well, properly watered grass is good for the base.


Right?

At least the CPC discussion is positive...

The IOD will likely become the “dominant mode” of tropical variability, and widespread convection over the Western Indian Ocean may teleconnect to the midlatitudes and help change the downstream pattern over North America with more “troughing across the West”

That's cute, it looks like GwynNWAC has a premium subscription to Snow-Forecast, too:




But if it's right, it'll be a welcome sight even at the lowest of pass levels:

Alpy to get approx 40” through the week to sat morning, hot damn.

Could someone check how much Mt Baker is going to get?

[abraham]

10 feet!!!!! is the standard when you click the top of the mountain and ask NOAA to estimate what a storm will bring

I don't think the joke needed explaining... but thanks anyway.

I suppose that depends how deep the PNW m-series stack is these days

The real question is how long until we get some much-needed base-building rain?

But, the medium-range forecast is starting to really shape-up - I see snow levels as low as 1000' next week!

You guys are going to jinx it if you keep flapping your gums about the forecast. We'll be lucky to end up with 1" of refrozen slush at this point.

Now that's good for the base.

Took a run up Alpental Valley to Snow Lake this morning. Getting cold but amazing how little snow there is. No snow on the trail at all until almost to Gem Lake. Man it's beautiful up there.

Looks like it's gonna get cold, snow a bit, and then get dry (and even colder) again. Should be enough chill to get the Windy Hill & Southern Resort running by early Dec. Seems like 'merican Thanksgiving north of the border is gonna be lean this season...

The birds here are friendly.


Got nice views of Glacier and Baker today. Rainier too. Stewart looks like it has a bit of snow sticking around even on the S aspect. I apologize if I jinxed it for us. If Tahoe gets nuked on this winter and we get shafted, feel free to blame me.

Did you move from there? Maybe you'll bring it with you.

Otherwise, it's torches and pitchforks for you.

...yes...

So how bad is Whistler right now? Joining friends for US Thanksgiving and the cams look pretty depressing. Not even sure they are making much snow?

I don't think it's been cold enough to turn the guns on much recently but I'd imagine they'll have them going over the next few days. Doesn't look like there'll be many runs open when they open this weekend, probably just the runs around the Emerald chair

Lots of rocks
Little bit of snow
A few tourons
One fucking goat
One cool sunset
One locked gate
Two old fritschis
One unsuspecting knee drop
Lots of fucking hiking
Sub par skidding on ice

Yeah it's going to be boring and crowded. Ugh. Last like year I guess...
