Northwest off to a snowy start for the upcoming ski season

Monday, 31 October 2016 by Cali Sammel

For Immediate Release

Northwest off to a snowy start for the upcoming ski season

According to the Open Snow website “Multiple storms hit the west coast and Pacific Northwest during the first half of October, which has resulted in a healthy snowpack for this time of the year”.  With our ski resorts being no exception – ‘Most of the higher mountains of British Columbia and Alberta are measuring 2-4 FEET’.  Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, Fernie Alpine Resort and Kimberley Alpine Resort in B.C have already been hit with major Thanksgiving snowstorms, while Nakiska Ski Area in Alberta has been getting consistent snowfall since the beginning of October!

With no signs of it stopping, opensnow.com says ‘From October 20 through the 26th, we’ll see additional storms in the northwest’.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

A little more La Nina a little less El Nino
Thursday, 16 June 2016 by Cali Sammel

That’s what the experts are saying.  And while many people across Canada may be rolling their eyes, for winter outdoor enthusiasts it’s music to their ears.

What is La Nina anyways?
La Niña is the positive phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation and is associated with cooler than average sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.  (According to Wikipedia)

Okay, but what does that really mean?
According to Dave Phillips, senior climatologist at Environment Canada – “In B.C. there is a high probability that we can expect a more frigid winter.  A little cooler, a little bit more snow..”

Read more about what exactly La Nina means and more from Dave Phillips on the CBC website.

For a longer and even more scientific explanation of La Nina visit the Weather Network website.

In conclusion,
La Nina = Happy Skiers & Snowboarders
