Tomer’s Take: The bullseye remains the PNW through 2/13. Then a large storm system (with colder air) sweeps through the Intermountain West on/after 2/14. This storm system develops into an ABQ Low with heavy snow potential for Southern CO and northern NM on 2/15. Snow continues at Aspen/Snowmass this morning! Highlands is reporting 6″ in […]

Tomer’s Take: 2-3 storm systems are lined-up for the West through 2/17. But, the largest and coldest storm system occurs 2/13-2/15. Season Totals so far! Current Setup Infrared satellite shows a busy north Pacific. The initial trajectory of all storm systems is the PNW/BC where the biggest grand totals occur. Forecast Pattern Forecast jet stream […]

Tomer’s Take: Three storm systems are lined-up through 2/16. The initial trajectory is the PNW/BC for biggest overall totals. The third storm system on/after 2/14 appears to be the most robust. Current Setup Infrared satellite shows three storm systems lined-up in the Pacific with initial trajectories into the PNW/BC. Forecast Pattern Forecast jet stream valid […]

Tomer’s Take: Three different storm systems are lined-up through Valentine’s Day. The bullseye continues to be the PNW/BC. Jackson Hole, WY is reporting 10″ in the last 24 hours. I’m forecasting light additional snow today then 3-9″ on on 2/8. Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows two areas of low pressure lined-up over the Pacific. […]

Tomer’s Take: There are two storm systems that run across the West through 2/13. 1st: 2/5-2/6. 2nd: 2/8-2/9. A third approaches CA on 2/13. Mount Baker is reporting 9 inches in the last 24 hours. I’m forecasting another 40 inches by 2/8. My video forecast 2/4: Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows two storm systems […]

Tomer’s Take: A few different areas of low pressure are lined-up in the Pacific with an initial trajectory into the PNW/BC on 2/3 then the storm track starts shifting further south on/after 2/5 through 2/12 to include CA, ID, UT, WY, MT, CO. Overall, forecast numbers have decreased a notch across the board. My forecast […]

Tomer’s Take: 4-5 different waves of moisture hit the PNW/BC 2/3-2/9 with four feet of accumulation or more. A storm system on/after 2/5 delivers snow to CA, ID, MT, WY, UT, and CO. A 2nd storm system follows a similar track 2/8-2/9. A 3rd storm system hits the West Coast on/around 2/11. My forecast video […]

Tomer’s Take: A snow bullseye is setting up for the PNW/BC between 2/3-2/9 with feet of accumulation. Blow-off from this rich flow and a storm system also benefits ID, MT, WY, UT, CO, and CA on/after 2/5. Season Totals Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows a split jet flow running around a high pressure over […]

Tomer’s Take: The Intermountain West enters a quiet period 2/1-2/4 (ssshhhh) with high pressure. Then a storm system flattens the ridge on/after 2/5 with snow returning. The hot spot during the quiet period is the PNW/BC. Mount Baker could see over 4 feet. Current Setup Water vapor satellite shows the current setup. Orange/red = drier […]

Tomer’s Take: Snow continues in the Southern Rockies with an Arctic Front then a quiet period emerges 2/1-2/4 for the Interior Rockies. A storm system will follow on 2/5-2/8 with over a foot for the Tetons and Wasatch. The place to be during the quiet period is the PNW/BC. Follow-up from 1/29 —> On my […]
