Nov 19th

On Nov 14th 03 we had a 14 inch dumping, which unfortunately decided to melt before any more came... ah well... Nov 19 is definitely the date though, that's when Mt. Ellen opens :D

After viewing the lastest forecasts, I'm moving my first flakes prediction to September 30th. There's a storm coming in late next week and temps are forecasted to be in the low 30s at night.

December 2003 was the "December to Remember". Unfortunately, I missed all those dumps...
