Day 2311: It’s no secret that the snowpack is horrible throughout much of the west this season. It’s heinous in the far south (down near Tahoe at the Central Sierra Snow Lab the snowpack was measured at 0 today when it should have been ne

Day 2309: Last week we saw a particularly unusual set of weather conditions set up in Washington State. Snow fell all the way down to sea level including a measured 3” at SeaTac. This was the 5th greatest March snowfall on record (80ish years o
Day 2308: Say hello to the snowiest snow measuring station in the US! There’s snow and then there’s the snow amounts that bury this station just above Easy Pass at 5,280’ in the National Park. While there are snowier places in the U
Day 2307: Right now we are in the midst of a series of atmospheric rivers. After receiving a couple feet of snow in the Central and South Washington Cascades last week, the freezing level has risen to 8,000-10,000’ and the WA Cascades (especial

Day 2302: I posted about this about a month ago (on day 2,294), but I cannot get over the extreme snowfall gradient with elevation this year in the North Cascades. The Mt. Baker Ski Area currently has almost twice the depth of snow at 5,000’ as

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
