More snow for the Northwest & Northern Rockies

Updated 4 hours ago Alan Smith

British Columbia and Washington were hit with another good storm on Thursday. Heavy snow will continue to fall across the Cascades on Friday, while Idaho and the Tetons in Wyoming will also score deep snow totals. The storm track will remain favorable for the Northwest heading into early next week, and eventually by late next week, the Sierras & Tahoe may get in on the action as well.

Dry Thru Sunday, Rain/Snow Possible Starting Monday...

Updated 20 hours ago Bryan Allegretto

We have a dry pattern through the weekend. Next week a couple of storms could bring snow to the Sierra but the timing and track is still uncertain. The pattern could remain active into the 2nd week of March.

Squaw/Alpine

Dry & Breezy Thru Sunday...

Updated 21 hours ago Bryan Allegretto

We have a dry pattern through the weekend. We will warm back up slightly Thursday into Friday before cooling down again Saturday. Gusty winds possible at times through the period. We are tracking a pair of storms next week that could move into CA, one for Mon-Tue, possibly Wed-Thu, and another for the end of the week.

We Still Have March...

Chase Powder

Cold and deep. Wind could spell evil periods.

Updated 22 hours ago Powderchaser Steve

The next storm system is just getting underway in the Northwest. Significant snow will fall from Thursday to Friday night. Decent energy will pass through central Idaho, northern Wyoming, and the central and northern Wasatch of Utah. Windy periods are going to make chasing powder very difficult gambling on openings and snow quality.

Mountain Collective

Go North

Updated 1 day ago Sam Collentine

The weather pattern for most destinations will turn quieter over the next 10 days as we await the potential for stronger storms to return in early March. Canada, along with Grand Targhee and Jackson Hole, will be favored in the short-term.
