The upcoming week looks very active for the west. Some of the highest amounts of snow will fall over the Teton Ranges beginning late Wednesday night and continuing somewhat through the upcoming weekend. A slow moving cold front will drag over western Wyoming late Thursday night Warm air initially may limit amounts at the bases with temps running just above freezing in the Valley. Its likely you will wake up to 2-4 inches at the summits by Thursday morning with snow continuing throughout the day. Slight warming will occur midday Thursday followed by a cold front late in the day. This will increase quality and intensity late Thursday or early Friday. Temps in the Valley fall below freezing late Thursday night. Teton Pass will become snow packed at some point Thursday. Lower elevations will see a mix of slush initially and all snow late Thursday night.

While this system is not overly cold, it will provide really good mid density snowfall for the upper elevations and better base building snow for lower elevations especially late Thursday night or on Saturday when temps cool. The coldest air arrives Friday night and Saturday when temps drop even further with winds shifting to the Northwest. Most of the moisture will be on the decrease on Friday. Additional moderate snow is likely on Saturday.
