This sight was designed to try & bring an easy to understand discussion of the weather in the Lake Tahoe Region. The main objective is to talk about snow since that is what we are all looking for. I wanted to create a positive discussion of the upcoming weather, but take out some of business driven hype that can skew forecasts. I also wanted to create a sight with the tools, links, & graphs that I use in my forecasts for others that enjoy studying the weather.
I majored in Meteorology for 2 years, but ended up graduating with a degree in Economics & consider myself a “hobby” meteorologist. I have been passionate about studying weather since I was in grade school when I would watch big storms pound the coast at my home in Ocean City, NJ. My love for surfing & snowboarding have led to my obsession of tracking storms.
Forecasts & discussions are derived from studying various global forecasting models, using tools & data from home & online, reading the latest scientific research related to global weather patterns, & past experience with weather in the region from myself & others.
Credit must also be given to the NWS & Accuweather.com for their professional expertise, tools, data & reporting stations. Also, Randall up at the Sierra Snow Lab for his charts, & Joe Bastardi for his undying devotion to helping us all better understand long-range global forecasting.
