"A warm, moisture-loaded pattern dominates the Northern Rockies this week, favoring deep but often dense midweek snow in the BC interior and Tetons, then gradually shifting to colder, higher-quality powder in the Canadian Rockies as we head into the weekend. Snow levels start quite high with this event, so the best accumulation focuses on upper-mountain terrain, especially at Big White, Revelstoke, and the higher Teton and southwest Montana peaks, while valley bases see more rain or heavy, wet snow."
"Tuesday through Thursday brings a classic warm storm across the Northern Rockies with the most consistent midweek accumulation at the higher BC interior and Teton resorts. Moist southwest flow tied to a strong moisture plume keeps snow levels generally around 7,000 to 9,000 feet across Idaho and western Montana, so lower bases see rain or a wet mix while upper elevations from Big White and Revelstoke down through Grand Targhee and Jackson Hole collect several inches of dense, wind-affected snow."
A warm, moisture-loaded pattern dominates the Northern Rockies this week, producing deep but often dense midweek snow in the BC interior and Tetons, then shifting to colder, higher-quality powder in the Canadian Rockies by the weekend. Snow levels start high, concentrating accumulations on upper-mountain terrain—Big White, Revelstoke, higher Teton and southwest Montana peaks—while valley bases receive rain or heavy wet snow. By late week, colder air east of the Continental Divide improves snow quality at Lake Louise, Banff Sunshine, and Mount Norquay. Strong ridge-top winds will recur, especially in Wyoming and southwest Montana, and temperatures remain above normal with periodic storms mid-month.
