Snow forecast next 8 days 11/12

The hot spot this weekend is the Pacific Northwest for heaviest precipitation with only light snowfall across the Intermountain West. Notice on the satellite image where the blue/green clouds are located: PNW and British Columbia. Red/orange colors represent drier areas.

A large dome of high pressure will shield California from any significant snow over the next 7 days. Looking further down the road, the high pressure might start to break down late mid to late next week. Here’s a look at the storm track on Wednesday of next week 11/16-11/17.

Jet stream forecast valid 11/16-11/17/2021, GFS interpretation 11/12/2021.

As for the Intermountain West (CO, MT, WY, UT, NM), i’m not forecasting much snow this weekend. Next week there are two fast-moving, minor storm systems lined-up.

    Hi Chris,

    I really appreciate your blog posts. Specifically because they are brief and focused on what I am interested in as a climber and skier.

    Secondly I appreciate that the graphics can be enlarged so that my old eyes can see them a little better.

    Thanks for putting together this blog, I read it every time.

    MVM-
    So its quality control time sir. You got A basin for 5in and Keystone for 4in over the next 8 days. I’ll be counting…

    Don’t worry about adding my local mtn, Perfect North. Although sometimes we get some river rain/sleet/snow mix plus it dumped a half inch of frost this week. Does that count? Cheers!
