24HR SNAPSHOT starting at NOON today

Water - .25-.5  Snow - 3-6
Freezing Levels -  4500'  dropping 4k
Winds 5-20 W  gusty

General Discussion: Today will remain rather soggy and mild. A cold front will bring snow and cooler temperatures tomorrow.

Long-term: Snow showers will begin to taper off tomorrow night with cooler temperatures and light snow showers lingering in the mountains for the weekend. Look for a return of the cold temperatures next week with lows in the single digits returning.


TRENDS AND TIMING
Precipitation: Light mixed rain and snow will continue through the night. The precipitation will change over to snow after 7am tomorrow morning. Tomorrow is looking rather snowy-could be pretty good day of riding.

Freezing levels: Freezing levels will hover about where they are now (4500’) through most of the night. Temperatures will begin to fall after the front passes through tomorrow morning.

Winds: Gusty ridge top westerly winds will continue. There is potential to get a strong, short lived, high wind event tomorrow as the front approaches the mountains.
