First Widespread Snowstorm of the Fall Possible Early Next Week in the Rockies, High Plains
It is too soon to determine how much snow and exactly where the heaviest snow may fall.
Here is what the majority of forecast guidance is suggesting at this early stage:
- Heavy snow is most likely this weekend and into early next week over the higher peaks of the northern and central Rockies, from Montana and Idaho to Utah and Colorado.
- Accumulating snow, possibly heavy, may kick in by Sunday over the adjacent High Plains, from Montana and Wyoming to the western Dakotas. This snow may spread as far south as parts of the Plains of western Nebraska and northeastern Colorado, depending on how far south air cold enough for snow spreads.
