Can't remember if we explained the back story earlier --It sure did up here in the PNW. Most of the action obviously stayed south of us.
The "January drought" references a disagreement between Tony and the LCC crew (formerly well represented on FTO) in which the latter insisted from personal experience that if there's any period during which powder-hungry destination visitors should avoid travelling to the Wasatch, it's a three-week stretch in January with a high incidence of no snow. Of course, Tony had a battery of statistics to disprove their claim.
The Alta crew claimed that this was yet another case of someone who lived far away trying to tell locals "not to believe their lying eyes." Always entertaining as I had at least a handful of seasons in which I went to SLC in January and got skunked.
