Meh - current snow cover in town is 88". Nothing like last year but I'd take it.

66 was my high today. 58 currently. The river trail was packed!

Sunny and 65 - well over today's forecast high.

Mammoth Lakes had 45" of snow with 5.11" of QPF - despite temps in the middle teens, ratios were only 8-1 for much of the storm due to the winds.

Sunny and 59 at noon.

York was already at 56 at 9:55am.

55 at 10:45.

Dang. Hopefully the sun breaks through soon.

It is still dumping in Mammoth Lakes. 45 currently and quite warm in the sun. All systems go for a spring-like day. Finished with .83" of rain.

Final number here looks to be .82" of rain.

I haven't seen hardly any negatively in our thread at all. Regardless of what the executive team decides, you have to be at least an honorary champion for managing 3 yards. That's impressive.

A much milder 47 here with light rain continuing to fall. .73" has fallen.

Yes. But the entire mountain is shut down today.

I have no idea. I follow a guy who lives there that has a great informative website called mammothsnowman.com. I pull my information from him, and he'll often say during severe storms like this that some of the amounts are estimated.

28" fell overnight at Mammoth on 2.84" of QPF. High winds are causing fracking of the snow and reducing accumulations somewhat. They may only end up in the 55-80" range as winds continue to increase. There was a gust earlier this morning of 112 mph at the 9600' station.

This is the most accurate public forum post that you have ever made.

.71" of rain here so far.

If you had any idea how much I spent on last spring's 22 day trip...you wouldn't ask that question.

Visibility in Mammoth Lakes Village is approaching zero. 4-6"/hour rates have arrived in town.

Village won't get rocked until this evening. Prime time for them is 5pm this evening through tomorrow evening. They'll get at least 3 to 4 feet during that 24 hour period.

I did now! Thanks for sharing.

That's awesome. I hope you all have a great time. Our family went to WDW over a dozen times, including once when the MLB Winter Meetings were going on at our resort. Sounds like a fantastic trip!

@Blizzard of 93 - what are you waiting for? Go see what Mammoth is all about. Or maybe you'd be bored?

AFD update this afternoon - we might have a triple digit snowfall underway on the mountain: DISCUSSION... CHANGES/KEY POINTS: * Major winter storm on track to bring blizzard conditions to the Sierra, periods of white out conditions even for far western NV valleys Friday night and Saturday (possibly starting as early as the Friday evening commute for the Reno-Carson City area), and strong damaging winds region-wide. * SIERRA SNOW: QPF/Snow amounts have increased if that is even possible. Now looking at 5-10" of liquid along the crest. Along with higher snow ratios, snow amounts will approach and even exceed 10 feet along the crest with multiple feet down into Sierra communities.
