To the OP, if you don't get up to Whistler, Larry's Powder Alerts are always fun for the local area. It looks like yesterday's report hasn't made it online yet:
Jan 16 - Weather Update
Recap: The snow dump of last weekend helped the pack tremendously by refreshing the surface, expanding the terrain and making for a powder Sunday. Snowfall was 1-4 ft over the four day period. There was more snow in the higher elevations and from the central to north Cascades. All resorts did well and the Summit got enough to open.
Forecast:
It blows my mind we are back with the blocking high pressure pattern which cuts off Pacific storms. One good thing, this pattern produces clear and mild weather at the resorts, as the ski areas are above the inversion in the sun and warmth - while the lowlands are cool and cloudy. It will feel like spring skiing, with little wind . Don't forget the shades and sunscreen. Do expect spectacular views. A weak system will cause more clouds on Saturday, but no snow.
The extended forecast models I've been watching closely extend out 15 days and update twice a day. So far, I am seeing nothing significant for the next 7-10 days. This is the pattern for most of the Western U.S. and BC. It's time for a snow dance.
