Just a brutal season so far. Won't be a great year for them financially, unfortunately. :thumbdown:

Hopefully things turn around in Jan, but I'm not so sure.

The good news is, it’s January. We just need a cool airmass and some offshore flow for some flakes. That may be all we get this year, unfortunately.

This winter may end up a write off but I'm very interested in next winter if we crash back into La Niña as models currently suggest. :think: :wave:

The last 13 years have had a few duds for the local ski resorts on the North Shore. There are years with lots of snow but word is the snow quality has been totally mediocre.

There is a massive push from investors to open up crown land further north for ski resorts for a reason...

It might be the clown range GFS, but I've had a good feeling for a while that it's going to snow down to sea level in January. :flakey: :wave:
