Maybe a split flow convergence on CA with the MJO induced jet coming under the Central Pacific ridge? This is only one model run of many I will need to see before I start talking change, but it’s the first model run in weeks that doesn’t just show a dry ridge as far as the eye can see. Hopefully this will be a trend? See this morning’s pattern discussion below. BA

it should hopefully by some freak chance 

Originally posted by | | | bryman | | | ^^^^  Yeah but you'd need about 2000+ mph winds to blow the heavy wetness around in Tahoe right now.   Side note, I heard there was a snowboarder death at Mt. Rose yesterday but can't find any news on the internets -- any intel?   -b

I haven't heard or read about anything happening on Mt. Rose.  their twitter feed is clean too. 

Originally posted by Scorer099 Originally posted by mech9t5 even some parts of the mountains had almost no snow on it.  The snow tends to fall on certain areas because of the mountains.  One mountain was bare while across the valley, the next mountain had a ton of snow.   It has way more to do with wind than anything else as to why some peaks appear bare and other are pure white gold.

Originally posted by Longboarderdude Originally posted by powpowpow Global warmings has struck, obviously Global warming isnt real... All of the scientists who are in charge of the research have released only the data that suggest global warming is real and they wont give out the raw data.

one just has to look at the nearest 4 lane street to see the staggering amount of cars on the road every day...compound that by every town/city...every state/country...across the world.   The population is also rising every day.  That doesn't even include all the industrial smoke/gasses, etc, etc..

You don't have to be spoon-fed data to realize how much exhaust that involves....unless you really are a moron. 

^^  It's really just a La Nina type of event, not global warming

still, driving less and planting trees (and/or not cutting them down) and just consuming less can only help slow the process until a solution is found

...just seems like people are making an effort to not give a $hit  

global warming is PARTIALLY to blame for why the east coast is receiving so many blizzards. as more water is evaporated, more water can be pushed around to cool down somewhere else/send it to a frozen hell.

This is my first winter back in Sacramento after being in LA for 2 years.  I really wish I at least went more in December, but I didn't buy my pass till just before Christmas.  The last two times I went were really disappointing.  Unless I'm getting a free ride up there I really have no plans on going until the temperature and some fresh snow drops.

it actually did this last year, to a certain extent. It dumped a few times in Dec, then absolutely nothing until late jan...when it dumped 11 FEET.

the seasons between 06 and 09 were just thin all the way around.  I remember going to heavenly in, I think, late march 08 and, other than the top quarter of the mtn, there were bare spots all over

Blah! The next 10 days sunny...at most, partly cloudy. Temps no lower than 48 degrees.... These icy conditions are not the business.... "Follow the sun" as they say. I'd rather board on slush than ice any day....

Sounds like a good excuse for a road trip then, eh??

Tahoe Weather Discussion says maybe Feb 5th? Tahoe really needs some fresh snow. At least I don't feel as guilty for not getting to the resorts when I'm in the office working for Tahoe Dave's. 

i hope it snows soon... we need it here

lets rephrase this and say is it ever gonna snow in socal again? mammoth has been bragging about the 17 feet of snow in december... but has anyone noticed there has only been like 10-12 inches in january?

Originally posted by zakk i was at Northstar and Sierra this weekend.  soooo icy.  Glad BA is talking about a storm coming our way, I need some pow to get my Hovercraft out.

Sierra was okay early in the morning yesterday. By noon it started getting icy.. real ICY. I mean 95% of the time all you could hear was the scraping of ice.

I want to hit up some of the places at the resorts I've never been to before. I've been going to Northstar since I was 5 but there are some places like Sawtooth ridge and some of the other designated glade areas on the map I've never done.  Theres a line that I mapped out by looking at the map where you can go from the top of lookout and end up right back at mid mountain, cutting across that bypass they put in, it looks promising also.

do you hike it?  I've been looking at a few of the in bounds areas over that way I think it would be worth it. 

We're at 100-200% snowfall of normal. I think we'll see a pattern change on February 6th. 

I think it was 300% last month.. :P Everyday without snow that # goes down.

Well that's encouraging.  Good news is we're all getting racoon eyes and arm tans out there.  Spring conditions fer sure

SNOW DAMIT!!! I'm bored and wanna go ride. . . . . . .please 

Might as well hit Boreal this weekend, all you can do is ride park right now.  That or work on switch riding 

Yeah I have a number of friends coming out on Feb 11th for a week or so -- although it's not looking good for snow, I'm sure there will still plenty of shennanigans regardless of the weather
