The absolute worst snow year in 50 years!

So as most know by now, the snow conditions in the pacific northwest have been an absolute bummer. Many resorts are closed already, and the forecasts for others looks very bleak. I have heard many theories as to the cause, global warming, seasonal trend etc. But I want to know what everyone's thoughts are? Is this an indicator of what is to come in upcoming years?
why use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice?

global warming intensifies the weather patterns of el nino and la nina which have different implications on the winters in different places. La nina which was this year I believe does not favor a good winter in the northwest. Its all about what storms are doin and where they are tracking. The jetstream is not doin anything to help the north west either consider ing a few days ago it was going above alaska then dropping below the northeast which is what has been keeping northesatern temps pretty cold for this time of year.

the over all trend for the last 20-30 years has been less snow fal but this year in specifc was bad because of an od weather pattern that shifted the jet stream south of the padific NW. I think next year things should be fairly normal if not pushing epic. If I remeber corrrectly the year before bakers record setting season was pretty shitty so either way lets keep our fingers crossed and really make some sacrafices to the snow gods this year

California has been getting dumped on this year. Which is strange, figuring that everything north of us has been getting rained on.
I'm sorry about The rest of the coast getting garbage this year.

wooo tahoe got a lot of snow, which you think would happen since you guys are above us, but maybe you smell too much and it melted everything like in the beavis and butthead game for snes.

haha, well i am not complaining, but when we get pow we only get like 10 inches max, it's not like the west where you get 2 feet dumped on you every night.

The jet stream is just kickin it down south this winter it not gonna be a regular thing. weather does not change that dramaticly for the long run in only one season.
Just dip your dong in paint and smack your helmet with it.

Yeah, tahoe has had the best season in a while, I go to school in southern california and the mtns down here have gotten way more than average, I believe mt high got 10feet in less than a week. I'd blame it on jet streams, just bad luck.

the pnw got hammered by pineapple express'. we had a ton of rain in the seattle area, but we also had like days where 6"" of rain fell at the ski areas. and when you dont have much snow anyway because its so bloody dry, you tend to get screwed over... hard

Baker didnt have much snow either. They said it was the worst year since they opened, they accumulated over 20 inches of rain as the year went on. All you guys need to quit complaining though. If you have a seasons pass, go skiing. Me and my buddies went skiing in the rain and there was like 3 people on the mountain, and i learned how to ski switch through water.

i think that in my opinion, in my hometown, there it would have snowed more, if it hadnt been to cold for it. For real, over some days around x-mas, there were min. -12°C. Thats too cold for snowing real.
ANd on the mountain, there was alot of wind during this year. So there isnt much snow, but my homeresort is going to stay open until the 1st of may.
