A low pressure trough will move across the Northern Rockies on Friday & Saturday and abundant monsoonal moisture in place will result in numerous showers & t-storms with heavy rain possible. Scattered t-storms can be expected both days across the Central Rockies, including UT & CO. Early next week, the monsoon will weaken a bit with more run-of-the-mill t-storms & lighter rain for most areas.

Snowfall was slightly below average across Southern BC as a whole this season, though a handful of ski resorts came in just above average. Most areas also saw higher snowfall totals this winter compared to last winter. The season was book-ended with a strong start to the season in Nov-Dec and a strong finish to the season in March, while mid-winter (Jan-Feb) was much drier than normal.

The winter of 2024-2025 featured near to above average snowfall across the Sierra, Central/Northern Rockies, and much of the East. Snowpack is currently melting at a faster rate than usual across much of the West due to warmer and drier conditions so far in April. Looking ahead, a storm will bring high-elevation snow showers to the Sierra & the Rockies from late this week through early next week.

This will be my final chase powder post for the 24/25 season. It has been an epic season in many areas, including northern Vermont and many northern/Central Rockies, Sierra, and Alaska spots. La Niña delivered as forecasted. Next Season will be deep somewhere! It is always deep on the Chase Powder Forecast. This post recaps the season for 24/25.
