Abundant moisture originating in the Gulf of Mexico will reach the easternmost ranges of the Rockies this weekend, resulting in a good chance of showers and thunderstorms each day from Sat to Mon with heavy rain possible. West of the Divide, scattered afternoon thunderstorms can also be expected. A system will also bring showers & thunderstorms to the Northwest on Sun & Mon.

It's been an active (snowy) May, and it looks like the final snowstorm of the month will bring flakes from Sunday through Sunday night, with powder possible on Monday morning.

The winter of 2024-2025 featured near to above average snowfall across the Sierra, Central/Northern Rockies, and much of the East. Snowpack is currently melting at a faster rate than usual across much of the West due to warmer and drier conditions so far in April. Looking ahead, a storm will bring high-elevation snow showers to the Sierra & the Rockies from late this week through early next week.
