An early start to monsoon season is underway across the Southwest and moisture will favor Arizona on Monday-Tuesday with thunderstorms and locally heavy rain both days. On Wed-Thu, moisture will increase to the north & east across UT, CO, & NM with an uptick in t-storms. A system will also move across the Northwest with cooler temps, showers & t-storms for the Cascades & Northern Rockies.

Thanks for reading the Steamboat Daily Snow this season, and best wishes for a wonderful spring, summer, and fall!

Thanks for reading this season, and best wishes for a wonderful spring, summer, and fall! In this post, I share my best powder day of the season, discuss this season's snowpack, offer ways OpenSnow will be helpful during your summer adventures, and preview the forecast for next winter.

It's my final post of the season. Light-moderate snow will continue in the Colorado Front Range foothills and mountains through Saturday morning. Peak intensity comes Friday night with some rideable pow for Saturday. Season recap of my top 10 chases. What's in store for next season?

Spring skiing conditions have prevailed across much of the West over the past several days. However, an active pattern will develop during the final days of April with the potential for late-season "powder" days at ski resorts that are still open. New snowfall will be on the denser side and snow will largely be confined to mid to high elevations.
