so tomorrow is the start of February, and my home mountain has gotten a total of maybe 4 inches of non man-made snow....to say the least, this winter fucking blows.

Even Utah has be lacking. It was like 60 degrees today in the city. At least the mountains are cool enough to retain some snow.

I didn't think it was that bad everywhere.. My mountain doesn't make snow ever, and we have a 40 inch base. We started out really bad, but its good now.

The area I live in has recorded a total snowfall of about 25-30 cm.(10-12 inches) And forecasters call for 'spring-like" weather until spring... WTF..

we are only at 108 inches (at the base) for the season. :(

I cant imagine what it would be like to be somewhere on the east coast.

I know it sounds like a lot... but Sierra's are gnarly and need a lot more of a base than most of CO and what not. Mammoth is having a sad season, so stoked on the snow making though. Thankful for that.

58 degrees in seattle. we have a lot of snow but that won't last long with this kind of weather.

but i blew out my knee last week so i'm not really minding the fact that I'm not missing out on any pow...yet, anyway.

2 days ago it was 69 degrees.
And the most snow we have gotten in Kansas City was a dusting the first week in December.
