Sunriver Snow Zone Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 13 minutes ago, MR.SNOWMIZER said: I give it a c+. The 2 reasons it wasn't an f were the 15 degrees at work at 4:30 in the afternoon was amazing and the snow rate today was 4.4 inches per hr which is amazing for any lowland area in the nation. Normally those rates are high in the mountains or in lake effect snow. That was the fastest I have seen 2 inches fall here since 2019. Decent chance this is the last snow chance for places below 1000ft the next 2 days so it was a good way to send the winter off here. This is the first winter since 2016 I haven't had a large snow of more than 8 inches. I'd agree with you, I'd say it was a C+ here which could get bumped up to a B- if we score a foot or more tommorow night. Guaranteed to end the season on 70+" snow, a low of -6, quite a bit of sub zero and single digit lows, a -2 degree snowstorm, a daytime high of -1 and midnight high of 2, a nice torch in late January with temps up to 67 which was fine with me because our snowpack is above average now. It'll probably be a C- in terms of snow but everything else bumps up the ranking. Quote Coldest temp this winter: -7 Jan 13th Snow depth at Mount Bachelor (last updated April 29th) 88" Snow depth at my home (updated April 29th) late season 1"! 23-24 seasonal snowfall at home (updated April 29th) 92"!!

I'd never guess it looking at the conditions around here. Feels like spring with sun breaking through the clouds. Yea. Some areas from Duncan and north are doing okay this afternoon.

ShawniganLake Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 30 minutes ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: This post made me think about how I don't know that temps would have been any different here, had this occurred in December or January. The past two days have had about 522 500-1000mb thickness and -6/-7C 850mb temps, Friday was slightly warmer aloft. We had highs of 36,32,34. Seem about where one would expect in the winter. I generally expect a high around 32 with 522 thickness. Yea I’m not sure if this would have played out much differently in the heart of winter. Perhaps daytime highs might have been a degree or 2 cooler but most areas would have still seen like 40/33 type days and been dependent on steady precip to drop sticking snow levels to the surface. SeaTac has only seen 0.7” of liquid over the last few days. Even in December there would likely have never been more than a couple inches of snow on the ground. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, highs might be cooler just because there is less daylight and lower sun angles, but the convective nature of these showers might be weaker because of those factors too. I don't see lows getting much below 32 due to the raging onshore flow. On the other hand the Tuesday-Friday period coming up, would be much colder at the surface in midwinter. 4 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!
