While we usually have to wait until at least November (and sometimes all season) for snow, it looks like winter is getting an early start this year in the mountains. The National Weather Service is warning of a strong storm with a "vigorous cold front" hitting the Pacific Northwest tomorrow, and they're predicting snowfall in elevations above 4,000 feet. That means Stevens Pass (but not Snoqualmie) may see some accumulation as early as tomorrow, which is great news for eager skiers awaiting a season of snow and not-so-great news for drivers heading east.

Oh, this always happens. One early snow and everyone gets all antsy. Then more October/November rain, with temps dropping consistently that lead to the itchy "before or after Turkeyday?" discussions. Ultimately, the hill will open "on time" and we'll have our first turns somewhere in the last week of November.
And besides, there's this...

Can I be the first douchebag to say:
"MUST BE GLOBAL WARMING?!"
