So, who’s up for renting a house in Jackson Hole or Bend, Oregon? Because the National Weather Service is out with its long-term winter forecast today, and the news is not encouraging. Forecasters are expecting a moderate La Nina pattern, which will push the Pacific storm systems north, potentially robbing the San Juans of much-needed snow. The best we can hope for, say meteorologists, is an average year. And after a November that’s seen 60-degree afternoons and a delayed season, to us, average sounds pretty sweet.
