SNOW SHOWERS WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION TODAY WITH 1 TO 3 INCHES OF
SNOW POSSIBLE ABOVE 7000 FEET. WINDS WILL BE QUITE STRONG ACROSS
THE SIERRA TODAY AND TONIGHT AS A STRONG UPPER LEVEL JET WILL
CROSS THE MOUNTAINS PRODUCING VERY STRONG WINDS ABOVE 6000 FEET. A
COLD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION ON SATURDAY
PRODUCING SNOW MAINLY ABOVE 5000 FEET...BUT SNOW LEVELS WILL DROP
TO AROUND 4000 FEET BY SATURDAY NIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY AS THE LOW
EXITS. MOISTURE IS LIMITED WITH THE STORM AND NO WINTER WEATHER

I will be in Yosemite next week and was wondering what there is to do in the rain/snow other than of course drink.

Well there's always climbing--more of an adventure during precip if less fun. Hiking too. If it's not raining hard anyway.
Maybe even resort skiing. Badger pass sounds kinda small and I've never been, but if it's open, it's an option.

Planning on rafting on the Ganges in India sometime next week so I'm feeling smug about missing all the bad weather.
Get it over with so I can come home and climb in April. (or maybe in Josh)
I'm not so lucky. Usually it snows when I get back somehow.
Peace
