4/9/26 Thursday 6 am
I am still not seeing sufficient model consistency to give me the confidence I need to issue a forecast, not only on the early next week storm, or the Saturday storm.
Here is one of many examples. Here is a precipitation forecast from one model last night.
Here is the same model 6 hours later…
The second run is nearly the opposite of the first run!
Here is what we know right now: Two storms, one on Saturday, another one on Monday into Tuesday. The Saturday storm will be warmer. The Monday/Tuesday storm will be cooler, with the possibility of significantly lower snow levels on Tuesday. Models favor the second storm for higher precipitation. The second storm could impact travel over the passes.
That is all I can conclude at the moment. The second I see some more consistency, whether that is 6 hours from now or tomorrow morning, I will update everyone.
