So yesterday the snow report said 14-20 inches tomorrow at stevens, now it says no accumulation, but there is a winter storm warning that says to expect 1-2 feet tomorrow on the very same page. What the fuck...

Last road out of Duvall and Carnation is now covered in water. Two shitty towns are now isolated from the rest of the Earth.

Depends. When it rains, everything that's gonna slide slides, so right now snowpack is going to be stabler, but if temps drop again it could create an unstable layer for future snowpack.

the best answer for any snowpack stability question is "it depends".

scott is also assuming we will still have snow in the mountains once this is all over.

Where's peaceful valley?  We talking sudden valley?

Anyway... Chances of being rained on tomorrow... 90%?
