Forecast for This Week (Feb 4-8)

The story being told by the weather map below is a good one – snow for most of the western US and Canada during the next five days. The storm responsible for this snow will take it’s time moving across North America, with another few feet of snow along the west coast early in the week and then powder moving to the Rockies by the middle of the week.

Forecast for The Weekend (Feb 9-10)

While there might be a break in the snow over the west during the very end of the week, a new storm should come ashore over the weekend, first hitting the west coast and then likely getting to the rest of the west early the following week.

The Outlook for February 11-15

When we look at the temperature forecast from the average of multiple model versions, the signal is VERY clear that the western US and Canada will remain cool and stormy through the middle of February. We cannot reliably predict individual storms 10-15 days away, though it’s highly likely there will be plenty of snow to enjoy 6-10 days from now, so keep your travel plans open and get ready to chase more powder!

Thanks for reading and look for the next forecast on Thursday, February 7.
