This year is definitely far worse than last year at this point. December barely got the resorts going and then these patterns of rain with high snow levels followed by high pressure has put the nail in the coffin recently... lets hope for a February like last year where we had 10 feet in 10 days up at Stevens PassScott Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05159996033823608546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-20413345054223336802015-01-31T14:32:09.302-08:002015-01-31T14:32:09.302-08:00Hands down, this has been the worst winter EVER.

Snow didn't arrive in force until mid Feb. By that time only about 6 weeks of skiing remained. This year looks worse. Truth is the last 3 years have seen long stretches of high pressure, both summer and winter. Heat waves in summer, temp inversions and fog in winter. Hate it.dpchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13075556261012545535noreply@blogger.com
