Cold Friday. Dry and seasonal through next Friday the 15th. A storm is possible for the 16th-17th. A drier pattern is possible the week of the 18th. A stormier pattern is possible for the last week of December.

This will serve as quick update to this mornings chase powder forecast. Slower timing for Wyoming, and perhaps slightly deeper for the Cottonwoods.

A powerful storm produced deep snow totals at Banff and Lake Louise this week with moderate totals for the BC Powder Highway. The storm is now working its way through the U.S. Rockies late this week. Heavy snow fell in the Northern Rockies on Thursday and will spread into Utah and Colorado on Friday. Next week is looking dry for most areas, except for Alaska which will see heavy snow.
