First snow on Mount Ida

Bother.

Ancient lore says that 6 weeks after snow appears on Mount Ida, it arrives on the valley floor. I am 176 meters above the valley floor, so bah humbug.

Elevation Finder

I used this link:
https://www.freemaptools.com/elevation-finder.htm

to find the following:

Mount Ida = 1511.0 meters
Salmon Arm valley floor near my Mom's house = 353.0 meters
Salmon Arm top of Tank Hill on Hwy 1 = 476.00 meters
Where I live, out of town, while technically in Salmon Arm = 529.00 meters

So, if the snow level drops by 193 meters every week, that means 5 weeks to snow.

Booooooooo.
