Ropes are dropping everywhere as many areas of the west reap deep rewards in the past 48 hours
Summary
The final wave of heavy snow in the Sierra is moving east this evening. Most of the moisture is getting wrung out with little in the way of orographics to provide significant totals in the next 24 hours. Cold temperatures will improve snow ratios (Amount of snow per water equivalent), so even though it's a wrung-out towel some areas may sneak out another 5-10 inches by Monday morning. The Sierra may see some clearing tonight in the south with some snow showers up north (North Lake to Interstate 80). In the long-term forecast a system takes a southerly track over California and the 4 corners mid-week. Some really good news may be in store for the Pacific Northwest and BC late next week and the following in the chase extended forecast below.
