Unless you live in the Olympic City :borg:

Cypress mountian had to close last week so they can stock pile the snow for the Freestyle events.

We will see if Green lake at Whistler is still frozen tomorrow.

El Ninio has hit so the left coast is getting tropical weathersystems.

POOR Cali' below :barf: Friends are being evacuated do to the rains.

oh man, you don't want to go to Scarborough (Scarberia).
we have some wind in the forecast locally but not great conditions. A lot of snow melt for snowboarders and then on the lakes it hasn't been enough melt to really smooth out so it's a bit rough.
Forecast in this area is a roller coaster - big warm up and possible rain then quick cold and some snow. I don't mind a good warm and rain and snap freeze, that can make a fast surface. But East wind sucks, gusty and troughs - and swirling back wind.
Here's our local forecast (west of Toronto) - up to +6 and then down to -13 a few days later:

okay - here was a shot of the Scorpions when they first came out - sorry it's not a better shot of the kite

OH NOOO the second pic looks a little like my oldest daughter. I think I need to ask more questions!!
By the way it's not her. But sure looks like her.
