Forecast Summary

Most of the Lake is closed, or significantly delayed, check websites to be sure.  It was a huge day for snowfall, I am waiting for the totals to come in.  Palisades is reporting 38–wow!  This system moves out this morning, by 9 am, or so.  It is still snowing hard at Palisades, looking at the Siberia Express Cam.  The present storm is working its way through Utah and Colorado.  The system exits Utah this afternoon and Colorado tonight.

The next storm will be hitting the Seattle coast late this afternoon or early evening.  This storm is taking a southeast track that will probably miss Lake Tahoe, which is probably a good thing to give them time to dig out.  There will be fresh snow for at least a week.

Spring Break/March Calendars

We posted our spring break forecast, thru April 1st on yesterday’s blog, in calendar format.  It is pretty simple to use, the dark blue squares are probable storms, and the light blue squares are 60% chance, meaning if we have enhanced teleconnectivity, there will be extra waves, or more snow!
