An active pattern is setting up for the Sierra Range, with one moderate cold storm on Thursday and a wetter but warmer storm due Friday PM/Saturday. Moisture streams north into the Pacific Northwest and BC, with some decent totals later this weekend. Leftovers favor Idaho and Wyoming, as most moisture stays north of Utah and Colorado, which grab lower totals. The extended has some hope!

As anticipated, the weekend storm hugged the peaks of the Continental Divide, bringing nice storm totals of 29 cm to Lake Louise, 21 cm to Castle, 20 cm at Sunshine Village, and 11 cm at Marmot Basin. Norquay on the fringe, reported just 3 cm, and Nakiska to the southeast got skunked. A ridge builds for the week, but cold temps should allow fulltime snowmaking. Snow likely returns this weekend.

A storm brought moderate to heavy snow to the Northwest and New England over the weekend. Over the next few days, the Rockies will only see light snow as a storm moving across the West falls apart. The East will see a big warm-up with rain on Monday-Tuesday followed by a changeover back to snow on Wednesday as colder air arrives.
