Dry Pattern,Plus: Winter 2002-2003 Forecast
Wednesday, Nov. 27


Hello Snowriders:

High pressure stays solid. That means dry for some time.

I am simply amazed at what I see on the weather charts. It's a stagnent blocking pattern called a rex block, which just keeps hanging on. Usually when they set up, they last a few days to about two weeks. This one wants to stay indefinately.

It may be influenced by El Nino.

The models don't show any rain/snow for at least 7-12 days...totally dry. Even then, they just bring in a day or tow of rain.

We have been plagued by some moderate to high snow levels, and now a ridge of high pressure moves in and that will block storms altogether for many days.

But at least we have some snowpack on the mid and upper slopes. And that's a good thing.

We just need a couple of good dumps with low to medium snow levels, about 2000- 4000ft should do it. But I just don't see any precip until after Dec 12.

OK, so it looks bad now, but really, that guy from NWCN is full of high quality bull shit (my dad used to work with him). The best weather predictions on earth can only predict about 4 days out, the fifth day is usually a guess, and 6 and 7 days are BS. This guy thinks he can predict 13 days ahead? He needs to go back to school

the snow WILL come

we just need to burn stuff, that solves everything


my intire crew waited for his ass at the bottem of the hill and beat the shit out of him. i broke his poles agianst a tree, and we snapped one of his skis. fucker got uppercutted so much. he was bleeding from his eyes and shit, crying like a little pussy. i busted out a body slam on his ass and broke both of his arms. the ski patroler broke up the fight and clipped all of our tickets. we where gonna beat the shit out of the patroller but my mom came to pick us up.

Snow on the 12th??? that is shitty, but I'm going to Whistler the 13th, and whistler with powder, there is nothing better anywhere to ride. But it would be nice to get to Baker 1 or 2 times, before Whistler, shitty.

Hey, above post, if we don't get snow, Whistler isn't getting any snow. The same warm frotn that is blocking the rain from us also blocks part of Canada. so no pow for you.

here's my prediction (and i'm always right)

next week, it's gonna start POURING rain, but the temps will go up to the upper 50s and low 60s.....in the mountains. we all might as well get refunds on our passes...

be aware, ski with care
