You’r looking at planning your Winter Ski trip but are just not sure what the conditions will be like. Last year was a bust and the snow really did not materialize but we all made the best of the snow we did get. Heck any snow is better than no snow! But come on lets be real, for those of us who count the days till the snow returns this has been torturous! However, the cavalry (El Nino) is on the way so to speak!Over the past several months, the Pacific Ocean has transitioned rather dramatically toward an El Niño state. Numerous ocean-atmosphere models (which are used to make predictions regarding the state of El Niño months in advance) are nearly unanimous in projecting the development of full-fledged El Niño conditions by late summer or early fall 2014.
So what does a full-fledged EL Nino condition mean? The strong possibility of lots of rain and snow! The last time El Nino conditions were similar to what we are seeing now in the Pacific was an event that occurred in 1997 which preceded the very strong 1997-1998 El Niño event (remember all the snow in Mammoth, 487”) Wahoo!!!!!
The forecasts are predicting an El Niño event close to 80% during the fall and early winter.
Well in a nut shell this winter is shaping up to possibly be a rerun of the awesome 1997/98 Winter, lots of Snow! So everyone keep on sending those snow vibes to the Gods of Snow and let’s help the El Nino find his way home to Mammoth!
Stay tuned for Monthly updates on El Nino!
