A week or so ago, I made a weather prediction: this winter would be
warmer and drier than usual.
Well, I totally nailed it! Well, no, not at all, actually.
At least, the past week or so has been very wet, rainy, and cold. You may or
may not enjoy that in the city, but it means the mountains have gotten lots of
snow.
Best of all,
Mt Baker is opening tomorrow (Thursday)! In fact, they've had over 80 inches of snow in 6 days, so they've
had to issue a
deep snow warning.
I may have gotten my forecast wrong, but I did pick up a Season Pass. So
perhaps I'll get some 2009 use out of it yet.
There is a real danger that
snow levels will rise and all this snow will melt, which has happened in past years.
Sadly, I won't be able to make opening weekend. I'm hoping there is still
some snow for me later in November. But for now, I'm psyched about Washington's early snow!
