michigan had a terrible season.

About average here in central CA up at Sierra Summit. Well over 300", but those stupid mountain hicks who run the resort had our year average at like 294", and then two weeks later after we received about 3' of fresh, the average is at 280". I even called them out in the comment section on the website, but they just told me I was wrong. Fuck you bitches in guest services, marketing, and human resources. I can't wait until the new owner fires your worthless ass.

No, it's bad for the PNW, but great for us down south here in CA, but I think it can fuck up UT and CO a little. El Nino is the reason I skied 11 feet of powder.

I think average is 700cm, or somewhere around there. This year it was like 250cm. Fuck El Nino, it's not cold enough on the coast anymore. And I mean right on the coast, it's 15-20mins from the beach to the base of my home mountain. BC is the best.

we got about average at Blandford,ma but it is only like 90 inches........it felt like alot though because  i live 40 min. away where we got like 14 inches in total

everytime it was raining here they would have a foot at the mountian,one week we got all rain and the berkshires got 4  feet...so we don't not get tons of snow but its nice going from none to a little
