--SHORT RANGE WEATHER DISCUSSION-- Updated for Today February 08 - We see partly to mostly cloudy skies (middle and high clouds) this morning with an approaching weak weathner system. A weak weather disturbance (the northern portion of a storm that "split"~>1/2 south and <1/2 north) passes through this afternoon-evening, with increased clouds and light showers expected. A trace to 1" of snow is possible above 3,500 feet and at the resorts tonight. Clouds clear overnight and Thursday morning.
Thursday February 09 - After partly to mostly cloudy skies (mostly to partly sunny) Thursday morning, another weak weather disturbance passes through over a high pressure ridge aloft, for more afternoon through overnight showers. 1-2" of snow is possible above 4,000 feet and at the resorts. Clouds clear overnight (similar timing and trend) and Friday morning.
Friday and Saturday February 10-11 - Partly to mostly cloudy skies (mostly to partly sunny) are expected Friday morning, with another weak weather disturbance passing through late Friday, for more light showers. Mostly light snow is possible above 3,500 feet and at the resorts. On Saturday the chance for showers continues, but mostly light and with periods of sun mixed in.
Sunday and Monday February 12-13 - Increasing chances for showers are expected as high pressure ridging over the northwest US breaks down. Temperatures are also expected to be cooler, with lower snow levels, in the 2,500 to 3,000 foot range, as colder systems are able to push in. We could see better than the 1-2" of snowfall at the resorts.
