Next storm system; Snowfall through 2/10

Tomer’s Take: Storm cycle continues until 2/10. CA’s big storm system is finally making its move into the Intermountain West. Snowfall increases in UT and CO afternoon 2/6-2/9, snow continues in WY 2/6-2/9. A smaller, weaker storm system races through PNW/BC/Northern Tier 2/11-2/12 with light snow accumulation. Drier pattern 2/13-2/17.
