Our run of dry weather looks to continue through this coming weekend. Since January 9, Alta Ski Area has recorded only 2.5 inches of snow. If we make through Sunday, February 8 without any more snow, that will be 2.5 inches in a month (31 days).
The models are showing some signs of life next week. The Euro, for example, has a cold front moving into northern Utah Monday night and Tuesday.
That's still a ways away so I'm not betting the farm on it, but a look at the Utah Snow Ensemble shows some signs of life in a number of the members.
If you are a glass half-full type, half the members produce 1.02" of water and 14" of snow by 11 PM Wednesday 11 February If you are a glass half-empty type, half themembers produce less than that. More than 90% of the members produce more than 2.5" of snow, so there's a better than 90% chance that we will better what we got over the past month! So exciting!
But for now and through the weekend, it's God bless the groomers.
