Are you disappointed with skiing and snowboarding conditions?

Mild winter weather in Vancouver has put a damper on this year's ski season on North Shore mountains.

Mild winter weather in Vancouver has put a damper on this year's ski season on North Shore mountains. And the latest forecast doesn't look encouraging: A "Pineapple Express" tropical storm is set to hit the Vancouver area today, and bring with it 40 to 60 millimetres of rain in two days. Up to 90 mm of rain is expected to fall on North Shore mountains. And with Environment Canada forecasting highs of 11 to 12 C and more rain heading into the middle of next week, is this year's ski season on the local mountains a write-off? Weigh in at nsnews.com.

Dan Stein North Vancouver "Yes. Well, it's discouraging if you want to put it into words."

Jared Zawislak North Vancouver "Yes. The lack of terrain being open in the snowboard parks is disappointing."

Alexi Liotti North Vancouver "No. I wouldn't say I'm disappointed because I've been able to go up a lot. I've been having a good time."

Justin Bungag North Vancouver "Yes and No. We kind of just take what we have and have fun. In reality, the season is bad."

Stewart Galt North Vancouver "No. As long as it doesn't snow down here, I'm fine. I'm frightened (of snow and ice) because I walk with a stick."
