The dump continued and still it was good but not at the bottom where
small rivers popped out of the snow and made a mess of the lower runs.

The dump came and it was good but only in the alpine regions. At the

Lots of fresh pow but look at those temperatures! We are going to have
huge amounts of precip over the next few days but temperatures are going
to suck. Make sure you've got wet-conditions wax on your board(s).

We're back were we have been most of this season that is to say, it's
snowing on top but raining down here. There is lots of precip on the way
but the temperature is not going to cooperate, the freezing level is going
to go up and down like a yoyo. Check back here to see what that does to
our snow conditions.

3 cm, just a thin layer to freshen things up. Taking about layers, it's
not a bad idea to wear a few yourself cause -18c will freeze the cajones

Nah, it couldn't be! By jove it is! It's snowing although snowing is a

Nothing much happened overnight. It started snowing in Seattle an hour

I don't know it just doesn't feel like snow. I'll keep you posted.

It's snowing as I write this, it's also a little to warm down here on
the valley floor but it's cooling down you can tell. Snow flakes fall
on the ground try to survive, melt, a new one falls in it's place it's
holding on just a little longer. Will the snow flakes carry the day? Are
we going to have snow on the ground? It's war down here, it's brutal.

I think the man calls the weather we have right now "unsettled".
I have to agree. Will we get more snow? It feels like it. Will it snow
top to bottom? I did have snow on my driveway this morning. Will it last?
Who knows.

Good news, lots of snow. Bad news, rain at the bottom. The freezing level
was hovering in the valley so we did get occasional snow on the bottom
runs but mixed with rain. Higher up it's epic, check it out.
