Jackson Hole and Targhee picked up 2-3 inches of new snow as of 5am. Periods of heavy snow will continue throughout the day with deep totals up high. The storm is starting warm and high-density, and rain has been falling in the lower valleys. Friday's snow will be colder and more orographic in nature with low-density snow favoring Targhee and the top of JHMR. Looks like a fun powder day.

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

A storm impacted New England early this week with Jay Peak receiving 16 inches of new snow. Ski season is off to a fantastic start in this region! The Northwest saw a transition from snow to heavy rain early this week, but colder air is on the way with several shots of snow ahead. The Rockies will also see some snow late this week.
