The West will remain in a warmer-than-average pattern early this week, but a Pacific storm will move through mid to late week along with a strong cold front, resulting in snow across the Cascades and Rockies with some areas seeing respectable amounts. The Sierra will also receive light snow. The East will see cool air early this week with snow for New England, before warming up late in the week.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will be warm with a few showers. Thursday will also be warm and winds will be strong and gusty, Then from Friday through Sunday (October 18-20), a storm will likely take a southerly storm track and should bring snow to at least some of our mountains. The storm track is still uncertain, so specific snow forecasts are not reliable at the moment.

Thanks for reading this summer! For the rest of this week, a cold front moving across the Central Rockies will bring showers & t-storms to WY, CO, & NM Wed-Thu while the West Coast states will see a late-season heat wave. Next week, isolated to scattered showers & t-storms develop across the West with continued mild temps. Heading into mid-month, the PNW will trend wetter and cooler.
