El Nino Dumps Two Feet of Snow on Tahoe, Launching an Early Ski Season

Need a Halloween costume? Try a snowsuit. With as-predicted El Niño weather patterns already bringing in the powder, Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe is slated to open as early as October 31. Two storms have covered Lake Tahoe with almost two feet of snow in the past week, and forecasts for the rest of the season are promising: Cold temperatures and big snow could keep the season raging through July. If this season measures up to the Little Boy's Sierra tour in 1998, snowfall could surpass 50 ft!

I hope an El Nino doesn't hit again. But if it did I would be prepared after purchasing a riding snow blower. El Nino wouldn't stand a chance.

Great post! I really like this post because it focuses on the subject and it really provides useful information that you can really take advantage of. This by far is the most interesting information about the Severe Snowstorms Hitting TV that I have ever read. Another thing I like it goes to the point without wasting my precious time.

El Nino can do something really reasonable!

I only wish ski season had opened earlier. As the Jamaican member of the Kaspersky Commonwealth Antarctic Expedition (www.kasperskycommonwealthexpedition.com), I would have loved the extra practice. However, for those taking advantage of the early opening, I can only recommend good Antarctic-ready thermals - Chocolate Fish!! Look for more at http://www.chocolatefishmerino.co.uk/
