Or just the good parts if you so desire...
"...SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY IN THE OLYMPICS AND CASCADES ON FRIDAY...

A STRONG STORM SYSTEM WILL USHER IN A COLDER AIR MASS ON FRIDAY
THAT WILL CAUSE SNOW LEVELS TO PLUMMET AS LOW AS THE 4000 FOOT
LEVEL. SNOWFALL AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN 3 INCHES.
HOWEVER THE AIR MASS WILL ALSO BE UNSTABLE ENOUGH FOR A CHANCE
OF THUNDERSTORMS...WHICH COULD RESULT IN LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS."

I don't want to be a downer, but I have a feeling we're not going to have a very good season.

This is from 04/05, everyone remembers how good of a season that was.....

I just want to go play in the snow this weekend, I know it's way too early to make turns. But just the sight and the chance to touch some snow would make my cravings a little more bearable.

My climatolgy professor said it's going to be a snowy winter due to LA NINA (spanish for... THE NINA) I guess the 1998 season was la nina also and everyone knows what happened in 98.

^^^ I thought we had a deal that we would not speak of that season... I will only think of the goods to come! The Nina is coming.

la nina and el nino are really vague predictors, don't count on them. Last year was supposed to be an el nino winter with pineapple express after pineapple express aimed right at us, basically our ski season would have been over before Christmas but then an arctic wind came down and cooled it right before it hit. so yea...

it did rain a bit

but the jet stream was different for much of the early winter. instead of being an expressway from hawaii and shit, it was more winter friendly, arcing up into the gulf of alaska.
