Tuesday -//> A stronger and colder looking storm begins to move in, and snow levels drop below resort base elevations. Significant snow is possible with this second storm beginning during the day, and continuing through the night. This should be the first true winter like storm.

Wednesday -//> Wednesday looks colder with some light lingering snow showers, also less wind as low-pressure begins to move out of the area. Skies begin to clear during the day.
Hell yeah!!!

Keep up those snow dances, folks!

Haaa... I saw that on Boreal's website the other day, too. I was checking out the pics, videos, snow cams, etc. on a buncha resort websites. Nice to see that we're getting some precip earlier than last year.


I was disappointed that I'd be missing out on Icer Air since I'm taking a class on Sat's. But when I saw how limited the ticket deals are that come w/ admission, I didn't feel so brought down. True... I'll be missing on all the fun, but those restrictions took a bit outta the sting.

It should be awesome! I remember going to the Summer X-Games in SF the one year they had the Big Air comp. Now, that was NUTZ!:RockOn - not mine:

Thanks for the linky. I 'member coming across that just after they put that report out. Like I said earlier, too bad that w/ La Nina our precip is a toss-up. I know Hood & the rest o' the Pac Northwest should get bombarded this season. At least we can look forward to the high probability that our storms will have a buncha COLD air associated w/ them. LIGHT & DRY POW!!! Yeehaw!

I always get mounted at wheel works. Free balance/rotation. Usually cost about $100.
