We get the weather, so we get the snow. Localsnow.org and its brand localsnow.com bring together many resources to help plan your forthcoming mountain outing. The Pacific Northwest has the most accessible ski and snowboard facilities in North America. From British Columbia to the Cascades of Washington and Oregon, and the Sierra of California. We get the weather, so we get the snow.

It is now understood that the prevailing jet stream moves onto the North American continent predominantly via the Pacific Northwest. This air arrives from the arctic and north pacific ocean cooled by ice and sea yet carrying plenty of moisture. The inevitable consequence is orogenic precipitation as the air mass rides up over the mountains, cools, and can no longer retain its moisture. In the winter, this means mountain snow. If by chance the jet stream is diverted to the south, then the Sierra Nevada of California may receive this precipitation.

If the upper air winds of the jet stream pass through the more tropical latitudes of the Pacific Ocean, say off of Hawaii, that warm air picks up as much moisture as its temperature will allow. Often in the Fall, this warm, moist air pummels the entire west coast as heavy rain. Later, as ski areas accumulate 3-4 storms worth of snow our winter season starts, typically with 30 inches of snow base. By April, we may have had 30 or more storms and hundreds of inches of snow.
