Moisture is well underway in the Sierra Range on Thursday morning. Extremely high snowfall rates will crush the Sierra Range on Thursday with strong winds—additional double digits for Friday. The storm path favors the Four Corners for Friday deepness, Northern Utah, Tetons (50/50), and central Colorado. NM will also score. 20-35-inch totals are likely for some areas of the Rockies.

Several inches of snow fell overnight into Thursday with some additional snow, sleet, and freezing rain expected through the day. Latest trends on the weekend storm favor a slightly colder scenario with more snow for Central New England.

The next 7 days will be very active across the West with multiple storms expected, favoring the Sierra and the Central Rockies for the deepest totals. The East will also remain in an active pattern with new storms every couple of days, though mixed precipitation will be a factor at times.
