@WasatchSnow Is this using data from KMTX?

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@WasatchSnow @AltaSkiArea More snow than November, January, and February during the 21-22 season

Enjoy the view of Utah from space on this nearly cloud-free day. Imagery is GeoColor from the GOES-West satellite. #UTwx

@ProfessorPowder was awarded the Distinguished Teaching Award by @UUtah , a very prestigious honor. We are proud of Professor Powder and all the amazing research and teaching he does. We love that he is being recognized for his quality contributions to the @uofu_science!

Utah’s famous mountains can wring a lot of snow from even low-moisture storm systems, according to new research by @UofUATMOS & @ProfessorPowder ❄️ #utwx

Now out in early online release in Monthly Weather Review. Link below (requires subscription).

Amongst key findings is the fickle nature of the relationship between IVT/Atmospheric Rivers and extreme snowfall at Alta/Little Cottonwood Canyon.

@TheGolfSpace Is that rain?

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@WasatchSnow Thursday for soft on soft

[Dave Amirault @ozskier]

Now that Utah is a lock for the 2034 Winter Olympics I hope that we can make some progress over the next ten years to tackle our air pollution problem. This is the last thing we want to present to the world.

(Taken driving home from Alta today.)

@clin10_a Surprising that other major mountain ranges of the western U.S. don't have that same threshold.

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@ChaseThomason Are the numbers in that graphic historical percentages of conditions during El Niño or forecast probabilities? And what is the source of those numbers?

@DrownBikeRun @ProfessorPowder If we continue at that current 2.24" per day rate, we'd melt out from the current value of 54.8" in 25 days, which would be June 14. Median date to first have 0" is June 14.

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@ozskier @SnowbasinResort 4 days at Deer Valley

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@StormSkiJournal In the east, it seems like everyone puts the bar down. West is the complete opposite

[Jim Steenburgh @ProfessorPowder]

Shallow clouds can produce remarkable snowfalls.

In 5 days, @AltaSkiArea has received > 50" of snow.

Most of this snow has been produced by radar echoes that only extend to about 1000 m (3300 ft) above the profiling radar we are operating there.

@brendonme Ironic that the billboard says "pyro city"

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

a stat that never fails to horrify, because us political leaders refuse to address it

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@KaitlynMcGrath @ryanhanrahan @PCski Hope you had a nice time. And hope you're doing well too!

[Michael Wasserstein @MichaelWassers1]

@ryanhanrahan @KaitlynMcGrath @PCski Safe travels. And yes I did!
