Consistent snowfall spoils skiers and riders<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past seven days Whistler Blackcomb has received 51cm\/20 inches of new snow. The five day forecast is calling for a possible 85+cm by Sunday as a strong frontal system hits the coast. The long-range forecast is calling a series of disturbances to pass over the area bringing even more snow to the Coastal Mountains by the end of the week. The snow base is currently sitting at 289cm at mid mountain on Whistler and there is more snow on the way.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe freezing level has stayed consistently low and with all this snow it means great conditions all the way to the village,\u201d says Ryan Proctor Whistler Blackcomb Public Relations Coordinator. \u201cI\u2019m not sure when the last time that I had to look for powder was, it feels like we\u2019ve been getting fresh snow almost everyday.\u201d<\/p>\n

Incredible snow conditions and great events mean February is shaping up to be one for the books. February 12 is the two year countdown mark for the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.
