I am writing this forecast on Monday night since I have a very early flight on Tuesday. Mountains around the state look like they are doing well. Schweitzer is once again getting pounded which is no surprise. We are moving into a bit of a slow period for the next week or so. Let's take a (quick) look!

The wave departing the Pacific Northwest is setting up over the Teton Range Tuesday morning. It will spread south, clipping the northern Wasatch and most of western Colorado. That wave will re-intensify over Colorado Wednesday through Friday, with an uncertain track likely favoring the eastern resorts and plains. Many ski areas will see snow, but the highest amounts are likely in the south.

A storm will move across the Northwest and Northern Rockies on Monday-Tuesday before stalling for several days over the Southern Rockies. The result will be a multi-day snow event with deep totals expected in Southern/Eastern Colorado and Northern New Mexico.

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.
