Time and Day: 0530 Saturday
The Snapshot: Snow showers ending this morning and
clearing skies. Sunny and warming tomorrow.
The Science: 8”
in 24 hours will hopefully give us some good skiing above the recent rain crust.
A strong high pressure ridge is building over the West Coast behind the upper
level westerly flow and will strengthen today and Sunday. The last gasps of
light snow showers should end midday Saturday with clearing skies. Dry days and
warming temperatures are in store for the next 72 hours.
The Long Range: Sunny skies and warm (7-8,000’ FLs)
dominate the scene Monday and Tuesday. Currently it looks like a very warm rain
event is developing for middle of next week. With any luck it will transition
back to snow with at the end of the week.
