October 26 Dreaming of a White Nov 2!!Snow has been spotted in Calgary, Alberta!
The ski season is rolling in fast with Weather Network bookies giving high odds of snow Sunday and a prophesized low of -16 C on Wednesday! (I say "prophesized" because more than a couple hours in advance there is no chance of predicting Calgary's weather...12 hours agao when I last checked the forecats it predicted -25 on Tuesday, which has now been pushed back to Wednesday and 10 degrees warmer - somebody should do a study to determine the standard adjustments that seem to always happen to our forecats)
Back to the snow, last year I was walking through snow on my birthday (Nov 2), and the weather is looking promising again this year. Last week I woke up to see this out the back window!
In observance of tradition, the first day of snowfall meant that I had to build a fire, and even though there was already wood split I decided I had best chop a couple more blocks.
This bodes well for those of us (so far just me) who want to make it to Lake Louise on opening day, November 10. With a little more weather like this and maybe I won't be the only crazy guy on the hill. And this Monday, Marvin starts his job doing avalanche control and "schnee machen" so we have an insider who may be contacted for snow reports.
Once again, that's up-to-the-minute, interactive snow reports at Marvin's cell #. Take advantage before he loses the phone again!! TrackbacksThe trackback URL for this entry is: http://csprissler.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!2C5DDBCBBC8EA53A!3901.trak Weblogs that reference this entry
