Seriously, Snowbird Ski Resort east of Salt Lake City was open for skiiing yesterday.
There's two relevant points:
2010-2011 had record breaking snowfall of 783 inches (yes, 783, as in 65.25 feet of snow). We had a long, cold, wet spring which meant melting was very slow.
The skiiing was limited to the upper slopes - the lower runs had melted and were open for summer activities.
Many eons ago, I discovered spring skiing is my favorite skiing - you can wear jeans and a t-shirt.
My point though, is this - how screwed up is the weather if we're skiing in July in Utah.
