Are you supposed to get anything about this storm that we're starting to feel?

You guys are looking great. I hope Amy's right but so far nothing big showing up on the 3 day and anything beyond that in Utah is the stuff of TV excitement guy entertainer weathermen, not actual meterologists. The below site is typically more realistic. On a positive note the current pulse has grown from 5" to 8" since my OP.

What doesn't taste better after a day of skiing?Well, beer DOES taste better after a day of skiing
BTW, we will be in Utah next week.
Where? I could try to peel away for a day. You guys definitely have way more snow so far, BTW.What doesn't taste better after a day of skiing?

I'm guessing not Snowbasin. Which skied FANTASTIC today, BTW. I mean it was FANTASTIC. Conditions were consistent top to bottom all day long. Just chalky groomers, pushed around piles, pure hero snow. I needed it so badly. Sun was out most of the day with a few snow showers that came through and a few moments of fog, but mostly sunny and just purely awesome.

Today was more fun than I thought I could have in 4 inches of powder. The crew came out for it and we thought it would be fun but not as good as it was. If it will just snow big a few times it will get way better as the steep stuff still needs more snow to open.
I also had a blast on the new Titans. Just perfect for the conditions and so fun to put on edge. I'm kind of blown away by how fun those skis are. No more worrying whether I should have gone for the Rally or Magnum although it's a good bet they'd have been fun too. Today reminded me why I do this.

It reminded me of the same. I agree--we got 5" here and it was some good quality snow. Not blower Utah snow, but it was fast and chalky and just held up well all day. I picked a most excellent day for a lesson (which turned out to be a most excellent lesson. I learned a TON and had a MAJOR breakthrough
) Definitely need a lot more of it, but hopefully next week those storms will come to fruition.

Well… You're right about this pattern being superior… I'm concerned about the recent warm wave and consistent splits but at least we're getting pulses and offsetting cold. Last year just supersucked here.It reminded me of the same. I agree--we got 5" here and it was some good quality snow. Not blower Utah snow, but it was fast and chalky and just held up well all day.

Breakthroughs are like powder days. I worked hard all last season in Masters racing (The cottonwoods had the goods at times but here there wasn't much else to do.) I made a little progress but surgery put me back a month and I never caught up. This year, pre-gates, in a short time I'm finally getting new sensations and smiles.
How are the boots?
Boots are good! And yes, the breakthroughs make it all worth it. I'm going to celebrate with a Stone something (not sure what's in the fridge) and In N Out is on the way
After today, when conditions were consistent from top to bottom, I realized just how BADLY last year sucked. It really did supersuck.
