I want to give you an update that much colder weather is beginning to show up for the last 10 days of January. The snow level has been really high most days for several weeks. In fact, most ski resorts have lower base amounts than four weeks ago! So, the news of possible lowering snow levels down to 2,000' is welcome news. The snow pack cold use the powder! Another story as of late, continues to be the relentless east winds in the gorge. We have seen just 6 days since December 1st with peak winds less than 20 mph out near the gorge. A colder and westerly flow will no doubt be welcome news for people living in the east wind zone. I will tell you that this coming Wednesday evening and Thursday are showing promise for light west winds - enjoy!
