Tomer’s Take
- Minor, fast-moving cold front on 2/11 races south through MT, WY, CO, and NM. Light snow accumulation.
- Alberta Clipper hits the Northeast late 2/11 through 2/12. Light snow accumulation plus some lake-effect.
- Dry all weekend in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia.
- Larger storm system pierces the large Western high pressure ridge early next week, 2/15-2/17. This storm system delivers a shot of colder air as well. Strong wind above treeline.
- Western high pressure rebuilds 2/18-2/21.
