- Mt. Shasta Ski Park ended its season Saturday after logging 55 of 60 guaranteed days, triggering credits for season passholders.
- California’s snowpack measured about 48% of normal statewide by Friday, with the northern Sierra at roughly 28–31% of average for mid-March.
- Forecasters expect a mid-March heat wave starting Monday to push mountain temperatures into the 60s and 70s, accelerating melt as most Tahoe resorts target mid-April closures.
