2-3ft coming to our Cascades !!

[Flakey]

A WINTER STORM WATCH is in effect for the Cascades and Olympics from Friday evening through Sunday evening. Forecasts are for potentially 2-3 feet of snow alone with the storm due in Friday evening through Sunday evening, although snow levels will gradually rise from 2,500 feet Friday to 4,500 feet by Sunday, getting Snoqualmie Pass back over to rain at some point. But this has the makings of an incredible avalanche risk, so if you're planning on backcountry skiing this weekend, pay close attention to all warnings and roped off areas. It's also possible we could see intermittent pass closures due to avalanche control. So even through travel conditions are expected to improve greatly in the lowlands, mountain pass travel this weekend remains challenging.


Lots of new snow and some warm temps to get the old stuff packed. Sounds like it's just what we needed to get the riding in full swing up at Baker !

BE CAREFUL. High avy danger too.

I am excitied about this as well. But key word here--"Potential"

It's all starting to flatten out here at home but I think I had as much snow in the neighborhood as there is in the hills! Well sort of!

It was nice to get the shake down riding done in the "Hood" before the real riding starts.

As much as I love the snow down here at home I'm looking forward to clear roads down low so I can get to the hills to ride.

From all the pictures folks are posting of their rides so far this year we need LOTS more storms to hit the mountains so I'm praying for mid 40's temps here at home and rain.


Addition 20 minutes later:
After clearing the foot of snow from my wifes car I come back inside to camp in front of the TV with a nice fire in the wood stove, I looked outside and it's snowing HARD again here. The car is being buried all over again... Dammit

The little woman thinks it's funny.

Well, I'm getting a whole lot of potential here at the house now.
