Confidence is high as models continue to pump out 24 plus inches for the Sierra with great overnight timing. The trend continues to push moisture south over the Four Corners where decent totals land. The northern areas towards Utah are trending down slightly, however 9-14 inches is still on tap. Colorado favors southern and western areas. Tetons and MT get the slow train. PNW also fires!

After a brief period of cooler temps on Tuesday, warm temps and melt/freeze cycles return for the remainder of the week. Rain will be likely this weekend, which could impact operations, followed by a chance of some snow Saturday into Sunday.

A series of storms will impact the West over the next 1-2 weeks with significant snowfall expected in many areas. The first storm on Wednesday-Thursday will have far-reaching impacts with heavy snow from Canada to Arizona, while Tahoe and Mammoth are in line for the deepest snow totals.
