End of Season
Friday, May 31: Summer setting in for good! The storm system that brought some snow above 8,000 feet earlier this week has now shifted east and it looks like summer will start to set in for good as we head into June. Temps in the valleys should be in the 80s for the upcoming week … Continue reading
May showers
Friday, May 3, 2013 With the exception of a few snow showers the other day, we’ve had a relatively quiet go of thing the last few weeks. That is set to change with moisture beginning to stream into the area this weekend. It’s still going to be relatively warm and we’ll mostly just have a … Continue reading
Changes coming
It’s been a full week since our last post… mostly because tranquil weather has settled over the area and there hasn’t been much need for snow forecasts. Yesterday was Alta’s last day and Snowbird is now the lone mountain standing. There are still a few more weeks left to get your Spring shred on before … Continue reading
Monday update
A few showers around the area today. Afternoon heating should destabilize things a bit and allow for more scattered showers into this evening. I don’t think there’s enough for much in the way of accumulations, but if one area gets under a heavy convective shower, you can’t rule out a quick inch or two. Dirty … Continue reading
Spring has sprung
Yesterday was a great last powder day for many of us. Generally speaking, snowfall will ease up for awhile through the rest of April. Yes, there’s a chance for a few flakes here and there through the end of the month. And who knows what May will bring. But for right now, any imminent threat … Continue reading
Last call for powder ?
Looks like another forecast went almost exactly according to plan. Forecast was for 3-6″ in the Wasatch with up to 8″ in the Cottonwoods. Right now, Cottonwood resorts are reporting 6″ at 7am. Orographics are combining well with a tiny bit of lake enhancement to keep snow going in the high elevations. That should continue … Continue reading
Saturday powder likely . . .
Everything still looking good for a bit of powder for tomorrow. Clouds will increase this morning with a chance for showers by late this afternoon. Valley rain showers and mountains snow will become more widespread tonight. System should be mostly out of the area by tomorrow with only a few showers remaining. Right now it … Continue reading
Cool and quiet . . .
Storm is exiting the area, Cottonwoods saw storm totals since Sunday of between 12-15″. Might not seem like that much as it was slow to fall and would settle quite a bit in between spurts. But it’s more valuable moisture and made for some great skiing. Today, expect cool temps and scattered snow showers in … Continue reading
Another tantalizingly tasty Tuesday
Last night the frontal boundary quickly start to lift north and gave me hope. However, as the boundary started to pivot, it dropped south again and is now down near St. George. A couple inches still fell overnight and it is snowing right now in the Cottonwoods as radar is currently filling in along the … Continue reading
April continues to grind out more snow . . .
Monday PM update: Snow showers eventually dissipated today, but not before dropping a few more inches in the high elevations. The stalled boundary currently extends from Southwest Utah, near Beaver, east through south-central Utah and along the I-70 corridor all the way east of Denver. Along this boundary, heavy snowfall has been falling all day, … Continue reading
