Even just yesterday, this weekend's skiing forecast at Squaw Valley was describing an average March day with 2-4" of new snow. The power of this incoming storm didn't dawn on me even after overhearing someone at the dog park say San Francisco was to receive an inch of rain today. All hardcore skiers, who are part-time weather geeks, know that an inch of rain in the city is equal to twelve inches of fresh powder in the mountains.
Today, I'm thrilled to see that Squaw's forecast changed to 10-16". This new snow is well needed and should make for very good conditions tomorrow. It'll be important to hit it early before the sun bakes the snow and creates the all too familiar sierra cement. Let's pray that the sun doesn't show itself all weekend.
Have a great weekend everyone!
