Accumalated snowfall website was created by baldwin
Someone told me last week that Mt. Baker has gotten 450 inches of snow so far this winter and that they are on track to beat the record set in 1988-89. Does anyone know a website to verify this info? Thanks.

I found part of your answer at the Mt.Baker Ski Area site www.mtbaker.us/info_stats.php
btw 1998-99 was the record snow year. I remember it very well. Baker had close to 900" by the end of January/99; roughly twice the 450" given for this season.

January has been a very average month. It most likely will be an above average year, but I don't think it will come close to '99. I think Feb in '99 averaged 11" a day at baker if my memory serves me right.

Whoops, thanks for the correction Telemon. According to this page January was the biggest month that year with 303". Now we just need to find the data for this year.

Ya know, I think Mt. Hood might have had at least as much as Baker in Dec.

I don't want to start a fight or anything, but looking back at matt's blog from the meadows GM he had a 'informal' tally of 258" between 12/15 and 1/14.

I just went and looked at the telemetry here on TAY and holy crap theres some big numbers! Hurricane ridge has 244" settled, though maybe thats average for there?

It would be cool to have stats for total snowfall, maybe Amar, our resident god of snow and computers could write up some code to add up each daily total and keep a tally. You listening out there Amar?
