...Early season snowstorm poised for the Western and Central
Wyoming Mountains from late Thursday night through Saturday
morning...
.An unseasonably cold weather system will swing southeast from
British Columbia toward Wyoming at the end of this week. A
moisture laden stream of Pacific moisture will feed this storm
system which may result in very abundant snowfall amounts for the
mountains of Western and Central Wyoming from late Thursday night
through Saturday morning.
...WINTER STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FROM LATE THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY MORNING...
The National Weather Service in Riverton has issued a Winter
Storm Watch, which is in effect from late Thursday night through
Saturday morning.
* TIMING...Rainfall along and behind a strong cold front will turn
to snowfall at elevations above 8000 feet after midnight
Thursday night, with the snow level gradually lowering to 6000
to 7000 feet by late Friday. The snowfall will be heavy at
times through Saturday morning.
* SNOW AMOUNTS...4 to 8 inches above 7500 feet, 8 to 16 inches
above 8500 feet, and 16 to 20 inches above 9500 feet are possible.
* MAIN IMPACT...Highway 26 along Togwotee Pass and Highway 296 in
the Absaroka Mountains along Dead Indian Pass may become slick
and snow covered.
* OTHER IMPACTS...Hikers and campers should prepare for sharply
colder weather along with potentially very significant snow
accumulations on hiking trails
Made it up to 83F today, which makes this the warmest day of the month (how pathetic). Potential 70F low tonight, I hope it comes to fruition.
You know how much I hate hot humid nights, but this will be a good relief from the ****tastic weather the past 3 weeks. And this is working wonders for my sinuses, I can finally breathe again
