i heard a rumor that this is going to be the coldest winter in like 15 years!!!!!! has anyone else heard about that......anyway is FREAKIN AWWSOOME!!!!
well considering last year i was putting xmas decorations out in tshirt and shorts and this year i had a sweat shirt and my ski jacket on i would say the northeast is off to a good start, i mean my local hill opened last year dec 6 and was shitty all of december, this year they opened the 21st of nov and we almost have as much terrain open as we did last year at christmas, i have a feeling things are gonna be a little different from last winter lol.
ha its snowing hella in town right now (bend, Oregon) and its windy as fuck and when i was at bachelor yesterday it was almost complete white out and fuckin cold for december
Well, it's been like -12 to -16 C up at Whistler the last couple nights, it's pretty sweet. 16cm new snow last night too. Dayum. Looks slike we're in for an awesome season
I'm not so sure about that. In fact, I am pretty sure that colder temperatures (to a point) mean lighter, fluffier, more enjoyable powder. So, yea, colder could be better.
allmost all the snow the mountains around here (baker stevens pass snoqualmie etc.) have had such cold weather and snow that they cant groom the runs because its to fluffy! i think its tight they just need to get lots of snow allong with this cold weather.
True, but at the same time you have to realize that if it's cold and dry for any extended period all the snow you have is just going to sit there and rot. Faceted snow=a bad time. I'm hoping for 22 degrees night and day through mid-march with 900 inches of snow.
Its true, a couple months ago some one posted some weather website had those winter predictions that had said that the east and midwest would be getting above avereag snowfall and colder than average temperatures. cant find the thread though.
its fucking 60 outside at my house today! my resort still hasn't opened up. i think it was like 40 there today. but i guess a cold front is supposed to come in. bull shit though. doesn't seem like northwest is getting hit very well
yo i agree. i live in jersey and what we think is a good snowfall here is like 7 inches. we get that like maybe once a month in the winter and if you packed that its only a like one inch base. we need the cold.
