I predict flurries of GMC Yukons in the Mt. Hood Meadows area. Intermittent sprinkles of Escalades in the median and ditches. Outback advisory in effect.

I predict

 

...an early start to winter

...an annoying thaw in late January

...some good dumping in March, extending the season well into the spring

...an abrupt warming in early May

...a hot and dry summer with lots of fires

 

No reason for all this, just kind of a gut feeling.

1999- 47 days of avalanche warnings

2000- 23 days of avalanche warnings

2001- 17 days of avalanche warnings

2002- 21 days of avalanche warnings

2003- 11 days of avalanche warnings

2004- 22 days of avalanche warnings

Based on the trend, we are either due for an above normal year or global warming is changing the trend to a lower annual snowpack. As a result, the trend is on a downhill slope.

The climatologist from OSU is predicting warmer and wetter than normal.

 

Unfortuneatly, that doesnt' really tell us how many skiing days we will be getting.

 

The sure way I have found which I can personally help to ensure lack of snow is to buy the season pass.
