Record Snow In Whistler

November 2009

The record's broken, it's officially the snowiest November EVER in Whistler!! 418cms so far and there's still 12 days left in November. The current storm system has blanketed the mountains with over 250 cm (100 inches) of fresh snow in the past week. Operations crews are hard at work preparing more lifts and terrain to open this weekend as conditions allow.

It may still be early in the season but don’t tell that to Mother Nature. With over 362cm’s (142.5 inches) of snow so far this month Whistler Blackcomb has more than doubled its average November snowfall of 148cm (58 inches) and has broken the record set in 2006 for November snow of 416cm, with 12 days to spare! "We went up first thing this yesterday morning for a few runs and it was amazing," said Shannon Beattie from Whistler Blackcomb "I don't remember getting that much powder on my first day of the winter in a while."
