The death of winter was vastly overrated and it quickly got revenge. Resorts around the state reported really solid overnight totals that are almost exactly in line with what we had forecasted. Let's take a look at that and discuss the upcoming storms!

Two to three feet of snow fell in the Sierra Thursday morning. Snow moved east over Idaho and approached Utah and the Tetons. Snow continues in the Sierra. Significant snow totals are possible for the Cottonwoods, with generally 7-15 inches expected over many areas of the Rockies as wrung-out moisture from the Sierra moves east. Four Corners should also score well.

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.

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.
