I am absolutely in heartfelt love with the Sierras and all the snow there! Every Billy Joel track is beginning to remind me of the major Sierran snowstorm with its Category 5 wind gusts! I have been blasting all Billy Joel's tracks for days and now my relatives are not the only ones shaking their heads. Texans have never seen me in full snow love mode like this. This is now an all-out infatuation with everything Sierran, everything snow, everything skiing! I am in full Cambrian explosion love with that storm! This, from just watching a CAMERA in Mammoth! Imagine what I'd be like if I had actually been there! I don't like blizzards with 100 mph gusts. I like Sierran Blizzards with 190 mph gusts! The Northeast officially sucks, it is the Florida Peninsula in August. All the mountains in the northeast get is 4 feet of snow with 90 mph gusts. That's pedestrian! I saw those YouTube vids with motorists stranded on I-80 with 100 mph wind gusts blowing pow all over them with zero visibilities! Drifts 7 feet tall!
I KNOW what I saw! I have nothing but PURE LOVE for that blowing snow! I absolutely WORSHIP, on bended knee, in full supplication, with tears coming out of my eyes in eternal gratitude, the way I should be doing with G-d, the blessed eleven feet of fresh snow in Donner! I am absolutely, perfectly crrazy for the severe blizzards in the Sierra! ELEVEN FEET! I'd be digging snow for MONTHS in perfect bliss! Those guys get 60/36 weather in Summer! That snow will to all intents and purposes, never melt!
Take a gander at the 8200 foot Scope at Palisades! They have removed most of the ginormous drift there but you get the idea, that snow is DEEP!
