The people in charge of next month’s Vancouver Winter Olympics are more
than a little nervous, they’re getting desperate. There isn’t enough
snow on Cypress Mountain, one of their feature venues. The prospects
for snow between now and then are dismal. In jeopardy are some downhill
skiing events and some very popular snow boarding contests.
Temperatures are hovering above 45-degrees and expected to remain there
for the foreseeable future (accuweather.com) say forecasters which,
along with some rain, bodes badly for natural snow or the man made variety.
