Snow showers for Thursday with more snow Thursday night into Friday morning. Snow levels rise Friday into Saturday with some scattered showers possible. Then rain & snow with falling snow levels on Sunday with the storm clearing Sunday night. Windy through the period. A drier pattern starting Monday into the first week of January. A wetter pattern is possible by the 2nd week.

Our pattern continues to stay dry for us. Over the next 7 - 10 days we will see a slight shift in the pattern that may favor cooler air but overall the expectation is for the dry forecast to continue through the 1st week of January...

An active pattern is setting up across the West for the holiday season with heavy snow for the Northwest in particular. Utah & Colorado will see frequent shots of light to moderate snow, while California and Oregon resorts will see both rain and snow with warmer air creeping in. The East will see a quiet pattern with a gradual warming trend, then colder air will arrive after the New Year.

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.
