Holiday Wishes

Thanks for visiting the blog again this year.  Here are a few holiday wishes from the Wasatch Weather Weenies.

For Utah Nordic skiers: A season that runs continuously into April.

For the Alta Ski Patrol: No more riming of the Mt. Baldy anemometer.

For the UDOT Avalanche Team: No surprise high intensity nighttime snowfall events.

For Alta beginning skiers: A functional Sunnyside chair.

For other Alta skiers: Many country club days.

For Snowbird skiers: A new tram (isn't that enough?).

For Brighton skiers: Steeper terrain.

For Solitude skiers: Limits on the number of IKON days.

For Cottonwood Canyons skiers: A real transportation plan.

For Deer Valley skiers: A foot of freshly groomed snow every day.

For PCMR skiers: Fully open and staffed mountain operations.

For Snowbasin skiers: Fewer IKON skiers.

For PowMow skiers: A cessation of all talk about Powder Mountain.

For Sundance skiers: More snow in northwesterly flow.

For backcountry skiers: Further strengthening of the persistent weak layer.

For the Utah Avalanche Center: No more persistent weak layers.  Ever.

For the National Weather Service: Accurate, low spread ensemble forecasts.

For Evan Thayer @ OpenSnow: Continued success of the whale (we all win with this).

For all readers of this blog: Many safe and deep powder days.

Happy holidays!

Jim

  4. Well stated Jim! As someone who lives a mere 10 mins from Sundance, if I could have any wish fulfilled it would be more snow from the NW flow. Or a higher base elevation. Either way, happy holidays and thanks for the wonderful work you do for Utah!
