4 FOOT STORM

Mammoth Mountain Ski Area is reporting nearly 4 feet of new snow on this first day of March, bringing the season total up to 152 inches. Sure by East Coast standards we're limping along. Even after this 3 day storm, one of the few that have felt like real weather this season, we're 37.7% below the seasonal average. Meanwhile back East shell shocked inhabitants, stunned from bundling up and digging out, are lobbying hard for an early spring.

Inches of Snow, Last Three Months and Annual Average

A few more inches could fall before the low pressure system moves east Sunday, but temperatures have climbed and the opportunity to track up fresh powder has pretty much passed.  A lot of us will be heading for the corduroy on Monday.
