Heavy wet snow was falling in the PNW as of 4 AM Wednesday. Strong SW winds will favor resorts in the northern regions of Washington, western BC with snow levels in the 4500 range. A deeper and colder storm is due by Sunday. The Sierra grabs a teaser initially with a colder round late week. Elsewhere it might get deep in Idaho, northern Montana with some snow filtering into the Tetons.

Two strong storms will impact the Northwest over the next 5 days, producing deep snow totals across the Cascades, British Columbia, and Northern Idaho. Tahoe, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana will pick up a few waves of light snow in this pattern. Next week, the West trends drier while the Great Lakes could see some snow. The East is still waiting for a more active pattern.

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.
