From a record‑breaking March heat‑wave that turned “powder day” into a “snow‑and‑shine” surprise, to the promise of potentially significant April snowfall in the Sierra, the trio wrap up the season. They reminisce on the different heart warming moments they've had doing the podcast over the last 6 years. Some of which included : A serene wave accompanied podcast between Mike and Evan on the north shore of Oahu, the many fond “snow parties,” and a sponsorships that featured sampling various whiskeys and wines! They dive into the season’s snow‑stats—British Columbia’s top‑ten dominance, a wet‑and‑dense snow in Utah, and even the “worst March” that forced early resort closures. They touch on the human element and hear why AI can’t replace the human touch of an actual forecaster writing daily snows on OpenSnow.

In this episode, BA, Evan, and Mike keep the laughs rolling as they dive into the wildest winter ever—think warmest March, least snow, and the most chaotic forecasts that even left the models playing hide‑and‑seek. They brag about slashing snowpack to zero before April 1st and comment on how many ski areas across the West had their warmest March—and if it had happened in April, it’d still be record‑breaking! The trio playfully bicker over “why the heck did the models jump from 5 inches to 1 inch and back again” while giving listeners a tour of current snowfall from Tahoe to Utah, and even a sneak peek at the new Open Snow precipitation maps that just dropped. Mike keeps the forecasts real with a friendly reminder to always double‑check resort closings. They wrap up with a tongue‑in‑cheek “maybe we’ll be back next year?” tease, leaving fans with a sense that the season may be over, but the stories and jokes—just like the snow—are hopefully still here to stay.

The group reports on the most extensive blizzard‑blasting and 4‑foot fresh powder on the Sierra that’s come in the last few days, and they look ahead to an atmospheric river that may drop 2–3 ft of wet snow before March’s first dry spell. All across the West, snow has fallen and will continue to fall over the next 5 - 7 days. Even the Great Lakes and East Coast join in on the action over the next 5 days, as their previous 5-day period was on the drier side. During the long‑range discussion, they describe how the MJO (Madden–Julian Oscillation) has delivered the winter’s most significant West Coast storm cycles, and how it is unlikely to return to the same form in March. Bryan also shares lighter moments: a “beard shaver” in Tahoe as they finally hit the 3‑foot-in‑24‑hr benchmark, and the tradition of shaving off a playoff beard. The show ends with a hopeful sign‑off that this might be the final (but hopefully not) “Snow Party” episode of the season.

]]> 2133 yes Episode 124: Seven Powder Days? The West Finally Wakes Up After weeks of dry spells and empty powder maps, winter is finally making a comeback out West. This week on The Flakes Podcast, BA, Mike, and Evan break down the first meaningful snowfall in over a month across California and the Northern Rockies — including 2+ feet at Mammoth’s upper elevations and fresh snow across Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming. It’s the appetizer… but the main course may be coming next week. The crew dives into what could shape up to be the best 7–10 day stretch of the winter so far, with low snow levels, colder air, and multiple storm waves lining up across the Sierra, Utah, Colorado, and the broader West. Tahoe storm chasers are already circling, powder prescriptions are getting filled, and travel logistics might become part of the forecast. How much snow are we really talking about? Where will the biggest totals land? And could this stretch deliver several powder days in a row? Plus: why the Northeast suddenly goes quiet, how Mammoth keeps winning in southerly flow, and what to watch as the storm track evolves toward late February. Learn more about your ad choices.

The crew dives into what could shape up to be the best 7–10 day stretch of the winter so far, with low snow levels, colder air, and multiple storm waves lining up across the Sierra, Utah, Colorado, and the broader West. Tahoe storm chasers are already circling, powder prescriptions are getting filled, and travel logistics might become part of the forecast.

How much snow are we really talking about? Where will the biggest totals land? And could this stretch deliver several powder days in a row?

Plus: why the Northeast suddenly goes quiet, how Mammoth keeps winning in southerly flow, and what to watch as the storm track evolves toward late February.

]]> 1663 no Episode 123: The Quietest Powder Map We’ve Ever Seen - 2/4/2026 This week on The Flakes Podcast, the crew stares down one of the most shockingly quiet snowfall periods they can remember — zero U.S. ski areas with double-digit snow in the next five days, and only a handful nationwide over the past week. BA, Mike, and Evan break down just how rare this lull is, why both the West and East are stuck in a mid-winter transition, and how the Great Lakes and southern Appalachians somehow ended up as this week’s snowfall winners. From Tennessee and North Carolina surprise storms to Florida’s falling iguanas, it’s been a strange stretch of winter weather. The good news? There are early signs of a pattern shift ahead. The crew digs into the long-range outlook, colder air moving into the West, and why Valentine’s Day weekend could mark the start of a much-needed comeback — even if trust in the models is at an all-time low. Plus, Evan shares details on OpenSnow’s new model tables, how to read confidence in upcoming storms, and why patience (and coping mechanisms) are essential during a dry spell.
