February was a good month. Stability improved. The sky was blue and it seemed like a lot of high pressure. It was a fun time to get outside and go skiing. What cool lines have you skied lately?
Let’s take a look at the snow data for the western US compared to normal. Below is the Westwide SNOTEL Current Snow Water Equivalent % of Normal as of March 1, 2016. You can link to the most recent data from the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service here. It’s updated regularly.
It looks like most places are average with a few exceptions. Who’s looking forward to snowy March?! Compare this month’s SnoTel data to past months in our past Snotel posts.
SnoTel data is one of the best ways to find out where the snowpack is deep and the coverage is above average. Are you ready to plan your next skiing adventure?
Enjoy the snow. Be safe out there.
