Snow Forecast through 2/12

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.
