Chase Powder Daily Snow
By Powderchaser Steve, Forecaster Posted 7 years ago January 6, 2017
THE FIREHOSE IS AIMED AT THE WEST WITH 3 SIGNIFICANT STORMS TO PUMP AN ADDITIONAL 10 FEET OR MORE INTO THE SIERRA
Summary
"The West just got hammered with too much snow for many resorts in the Sierra to open steep terrain and a huge bonus for Utah, Colorado and New Mexico who nabbed 1-3 feet" Mammoth mountain is reporting 7 feet in 2 days (Summit) and the storm cycle is just beginning. Am I allowed to say WHOLLY S#@T. In Utah resorts near Park City, Deer Valley fared deeper than than Alta but the winners were in the extreme north (Beaver Mountain- 2 feet plus) and south near Provo at Sundance who reported 22 inches yesterday morning. The next parade of 3 large storms is going slam into the Sierra Saturday and head into the Wasatch and Tetons late this weekend. The Pacific Northwest will get some moderate action this weekend (Panhandle of Idaho fares better) and areas of Idaho, Wyoming, Utah and Colorado are on my radar for Tuesday as a cold front eases over the Rockies.
