yes... it seems as though it is that time of year my children! snow has fallen at stevens pass today, thus inspiring the 06/07 snow watch thread. some may wonder why now and not earlier. well you see, its all about patients young ones. i knew if i had posted it back in the begining of october like last year hearts would be broken.

Snow level - 500-1000 feet, Heavy Snow and local accumulations likely. FRIDAY BITCHES!!!

back X-mas of 98 (the really big snow year) my family was driving back from Pullman on I90 and we stop at the McDonalds at Ellensburg after hearing that the pass was closed for avalanch blasting for a few hours. then a guy comes and says that the pass is open agian so we start driving,  soon we hit heavy trafic that really is not moving and it is just dumping out side, me and my brother built a snowman, and then cars start moving again but slowly then after about 4-6 hours after we left Ellensburg (now aroung 8 or 9 pm) we get to the spot where the state patrol is turning people around.  so we need to head back to ellensburg but the road back is cloased to, the only place available is Cle Elem. and so we drive around thinking we will be spending the  night in the car. since all the churches that were letting people sleep inthem were already full, and then we go to safeway to try and get some food but safeway is sold out, then we find out the School complex is letting people sleep inside of it, (Elementry, middle and Highschool buildings are all conected)  So there are about 5,000 or more people who got trapped between Ellensburg and the pass who are staying in this School over night.

It was some gnarly shit. My one run on Hogs was epic, the daisy runs were ok with some little drops off that big rock and some others under the chair.

i bet some of those wind drifts were starting to get deep. of course itll expose some of that ice, but seek out those lee slopes and itll be delicious. Curious to see what will happen tomorrow night with that next storm.

snoqualmie was closed today as well, watching the planes flying over work on final to sea-tac, they were almost at a 45 degree angle with the crosswind! Would NOT have been a good day to fly or ski.

but the weather right now, brings a tear to the eye. so beautiful

by the way that is my guess for what has been causing all this wind the dense warm air desipating to to the low pressure cold air
