When will the pineapple end?

After temperatures near zero New Year's weekend, we've had three straight weeks of warm weather and rain in the mountains. Today I dropped Ava for her ski lesson at Summit West in the rain, then drove over to Alpental to check out the conditions there. Luckily it was snowing at the top of Debbie's Gold, about 4300 feet. Then up chair 2 where it was snowing hard, although a bit heavy. No lift lines though so I got a bunch of runs in and thoroughly enjoyed it.

It's supposed to cool off a bit tomorrow but then the snow shuts off for the next several days. My optimism for Feb and March are still in tact, but man, we need some cold weather!
