One more mild day Friday and then the weather pattern becomes more active as the ridge finally moves away from California. Saturday we have a weak system pushing in bringing colder air and light scattered snow showers. We may pick up an1-3 inches on the mountain by Saturday night.
The next storm dives in on Monday. This storm will have more moisture to work with and colder air. We should see a burst of heavy snow as the cold front pushes through during the day on Monday and then light snow showers behind it. Snowfall forecast is for 3-6 inches at the base with 6-9 inches up top by Monday night.
There will be another weak storm moving into the Pacific NW on Wednesday and we may pick up a few more inches on the South side of the storm. The ridge looks like it will move closer to the coast the second half of next week with a break in the action before retrograding again over the weekend.
There is the possibility of a stronger storm next weekend but still not sure how far South the heavy precip will push with this system. It is still far off so we will have to keep watching the track. The potential is there to get a decent storm.
Some of the forecast models continue to show the ridge out in the Pacific the week of the 20th allowing some bigger storms in. If anything the weather will be a lot more active and interesting it looks like in the coming weeks. BA
