Today we are talking about the weather, forecasting, andfinding your people in this dark, cold, and sometimes lonely universe … with two of the weather forecasters from OpenSnow, Bryan Allegretto and Evan Thayer.

We discuss last season’s historic winter; how much stock you ought to put into the whole ‘El Nino or la Nina thing’; whether the stated snowfall amounts at various ski areas are fake news; all the ingredients that go into the creation of snowfall (it’s not just lots of precipitation); and more.
