gapertimmy Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 Looks like the Low is dipping from NW->SE roughly, so WA/BC shoudl be getting more than Oregon. Nonetheless, Its looking like at least a foot here at Bachelor Quote
E-rock Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 I hate to burst the bubble, but that snow is going to be falling on surface hoar that formed everywhere. We'll be riding the lifts for a while. Quote
dryad Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 I definitely want to get out this weekend. Looks like once again Sunday will be the day for me. Let me know if you want to do something beginner-level. Lifts or not, whatever. Quote
Ned_Flanders Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 I definitely want to ski from thursday-sunday, hopefully twice. either backcountry or lift. i am leaning towards baker or stevens area. anyone interested. Â joshua Quote
minx Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 i'll be skiing thurs at snoq. not sure if i can ski w/my arm in a sling after that. But i may just try! Quote
Dave_Schuldt Posted March 5, 2003 Author Posted March 5, 2003 Deal me in, ready to do some backcountry in the trees off the Smith Brook road. Quote
Figger_Eight Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 I'm thinking Crystal on Friday. Anyone else gonna be down there? Quote
ski_photomatt Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 minx - as a kid, my brother skied an entire week at Steamboat with his arm in a sling after dislocating his shoulder the first day he was about middle school age. I'll certainly be riding the lifts at Alpental Thursday. Will anyone else be up there? Quote
fredrogers Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 With any luck, tomorrow and Thursday. Oh, wait, I'm unemployed. I'll be there both days. Maybe Friday, too. Â Â Quote

eternalX Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 It's begun! Friday is going to kick ass. 2ft expected over the next 48 hours. Pretty sure I'm bailing work and making it a long weekend! Â w00p!! Â Â Quote
iain Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 the question on everyone's minds is, will I get a new wind speed record on my signature? Quote
philfort Posted March 6, 2003 Posted March 6, 2003 I thought it was supposed to be dumping all today... the passes have only got a few inches of snow  Is this going to fizzle out like all the other big storms they have predicted this winter? Quote
ski_photomatt Posted March 6, 2003 Posted March 6, 2003 How much snow do you want? Stevens has 6" since 8am, Baker 9" in the last 24 hrs. Snoqualmie had a little trouble getting it below freezing earlier today but is kicking it in now with 3" at the pass. At 4000ft they have the same as Stevens I'm sure. 6" in 8hrs at Stevens is 18" in 24 hrs or a 100% certified dump by tomorrow night. Quote
ski_photomatt Posted March 6, 2003 Posted March 6, 2003 I thought this was interesting so I'll post it. This storm is a little unusual in that it isn't a low pressure developing over the eastern pacific and moving inland. Instead, a low moved down from Alaska and is sitting over British Columbia somewhere. A high is parked in the Pacific and the two are in fortunate position relative to each other and forming a "conveyer" belt of moisture, sending it straight into Washington and Oregon. The satellite picture is total water vapor, green = wet. Â Quote
JoshK Posted March 6, 2003 Posted March 6, 2003 that is quite cool. thanks for the link. where did you find that sat image? Quote
