WEEKEND SNOW STORM FOR WESTERN WY

Friday...whew!...we are done for the week guys!  Now, for the majority of us, East of the Divide, hope you held onto your caps since it was breezy and balmy. 

Rest of the Weekend for East of the Divide (Casper/Riverton/Cheyenne, etc.)
  -- Continuing with the Balmy and Mild Temperatures that will remain Unseasonably Warm that'll be 15-20°s Above Normal.  PLUS, winds will be over 20mph + sustained, but BLUSTERY for Sunday as the Front approaches.  Could see High Wind Warnings in effect.


SNOW TALK: 

Snows from Friday Night and Early Saturday is about to tapper off and here are the Unofficial Reports I have seen so far:

Jackson Hole Ski Resort ~ 3-7"
Brooks Lake ~ 3" 
Togwotee ~ 1-2"

Next Wave of Moisture arrives here later in the day on Saturday and sticks with us through the Evening and Overnight hours.

--GFS is a little more South than the NAM with their Snow into Lincoln Co. and stretching up in the YNP region.  Could see a little big slide into the Wind River's.   

--We'll see how this pans out.




SUNDAY looks to be the best Moisture-Laden disturbance, meaning more intense snowfall rates.

-- Bright Greens show very strong Precipitation and pending on how warm we get in the Valleys, it could start as a Rain>to a Mix> and then ALL Snow as the Front creeps in. 

--GFS is better than the NAM with Light Snow in the Bighorns and Sierra Madre's and could clip in to SweetWater County. 

** As for Casper/Riverton-- Remaining Blustery and Dry through 11 PM Sunday Night.




MONDAY MORNING:

--See how there is 'split flow'?  One band of Moisture is to the North in the Bighorns and approaching the Black Hills and the OTHER is along I-80?  That Strong SW flow of winds could rip the storm apart as it crosses East of the Divide, limiting the Snow Chances for Casper.

--All of this should deteriorate when Monday Mid-day passes.





TOTAL SNOW AMOUNTS from the RPM Model:

Some could be enhanced with some Rainfall, keep in mind.

I'll be Updating this Saturday Afternoon and see where we are with Snow Amounts and Tally's!


As I Mentioned, some could see FEET of Snow.
