Snow Totals & the Next Two Storms
Updated 18 hours ago Joel Gratz
Tuesday's storm delivered 1-10 inches of snow with the deeper amounts east of the divide. Wednesday will be dry and sunny, then a storm on Thursday will again favor locations east of the divide with up to 4-5 inches. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday will be dry, and the next storm will arrive during the first few days of February.

Keeping an eye on a Nor'easter for this weekend
Updated 20 hours ago Alan Smith
The big story during the second half of this week will be a powerful Nor'eastern developing in the Atlantic that is now expected to track close enough to the coastline to bring heavy snow to some areas – though just how far inland the heavy snow makes it remains in question. Aside from that, a storm will move into the Pacific NW on Sunday with a round of snow for the Rockies early next week.
