Weather coming in hard!

From the NOAA website, at about Observation Point:

Sorry for the substandard photo quality. I’ll work on doing better.

Wednesday Night Snow likely, mainly after 10pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 23. South wind 5 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.

Thursday Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 32. Breezy, with a southwest wind 20 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 40 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 12 to 18 inches possible.

Thursday Night Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 28. Breezy, with a southwest wind around 20 mph, with gusts as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 10 to 16 inches possible.

Friday Snow, mainly before 4pm. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 29. Breezy. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 5 to 9 inches possible.

That’s 29 to 47 inches of snow predicted over about 48 hours.

Might be fun to play in but please be prepared. Plan on spending the night (because your buddy broke down.) in below freezing temperatures. The weekend looks promising.

Bring: shelter, sleeping bag, food, multiple changes of clothes, fire starting materials, communications and all the other supplies you’d normally bring out on the Rubicon. Don’t go alone, tell someone where you’re going and when you’ll be back.

Do you guys get tired of me typing out the same rant about being prepared to play on the Rubicon?

Just don’t be THAT GUY.
