The Monster South American Storm Continues | Snow Totals & Photo Tour:

Portillo, Chile last night.

The large storm originally forecast to drop 19-feet of snow on central Chile in 4 days is continuing today. So far, ski resorts are reporting numbers around 40-50″ of new snow from the past two days.

This storm was strong enough to keep Portillo closed all day yesterday and most likely they’ll be closed again today.
