SierraSnowBlog: Tiny Bit of Relief Coming Up…Update 2/23 Powder Day

2/23/15

I was at Mammoth Mountain today with light winds, partly sunny, temp in 20s. There was 8-12 in of light powder with great runs off Chairs 1, 2, 3 and 12 in early am. Stay tuned for March forecast.

Colder With Some New Cover

Even NOAA confirms precipitation and colder weather ahead beginning Sunday. Low pressure from Canada heading South and drifting to the East. And climate models indicate a wetter,colder March. Let’s hope.

Howard offers a lot to ponder, and a little snow in the forecast.
