False Spring......

Northstar picked up 2 inches overnight from a band of snow that swept through from a storm to the North overnight.

Ridge has begun to build in over the area pushing the storm track into the Pacific NW. Storms over the weekend and into next week will come close but not close enough to bring much snow. Models have even pushed tomorrow's storm a bit further North. Just expecting the same as last night with a dusting possible as storms pass tomorrow and Tuesday with maybe up to an inch or two on the mountain. Temps over the weekend will be in the 40's on the mountains with lots of sun and a good base so it should be perfect if you love those conditions.

Ridge builds in even stronger next week keeping storms into the Pacific NW. Blocking should begin to ease towards the end of the week allowing the storm track to return to CA going into the final week of February. See below for more long range discussion....BA
