stop me if i'm wrong but it seems like all of north america is in a drought.. i live in slc and the resorts here are barely open... i know some people are still waiting to ski and most are skiing on almost all manmade snow... fuck, pray for snow.

Every mountain by where I live has delayed their opening indefinitely.  We should have a 40" base by now, but instead we have 18".  I love 8 year long droughts.

YOu guys all suck. He wasn't bitching about living in SLC, he was making a point that even the snowiest city around isn't getting much. And I lived in INDIANA for the first 18 years of my life. You know what our yearly total for snow was last year? 18 inches. shut up, and don't bitch about Connecticut or wahtever. later.

What the fuck are you talking about? You live in SLC and don't know that Alta, Snowbird, Brighton and Solitude all have 36in bases plus powder? You're the fucking idiot. Even Park City has a lot of snow, and the resorts never have record snowfall of snow 3 weeks into the year. You're dumb.

Don't blame global warming, it doesn't explain the superb winter we had last year.. I think it's just bad luck this year

wheather patterns change, like would you complain if it was an unnormal spring and it took to look to warm up, no you wouldnt.. So just wait it out, it will snow.

well you are wrong. global warming cant necessarily get rid of the precipitation. it would be a true effect of it if every ski area had rain, and not snow. well see that trend in a few decades for sure
