The NRCS monthly update highlighted the tremendous rainfall from October, especially in valleys, and incredibly high levels of soil moisture for this time of year.

My happiness level with the current conditions and forecast on a scale of 1 to 10 is a....

Not really much on the ground, except for way up high. Nothing for the next week. The fact that we have some snow and the hope of something 8+ days out bumps it up from the floor.

Yes, there is hope around mid-month for a pattern change. But for the next 10 days, the forecast is not good. Frustratingly quiet and warm in a period when resorts are hoping to get/make snow for opening dates.

Bad news. Utah's 2026-27 ski season won' start Friday after all. 🥲 Warm weather is partly to blame.

The subseasonal (very long-range) models are looking very El Niño-like. Only time will tell if this comes to fruition, but it would mean a potentially very active southern tier of the US.

It was a decent snowstorm, but only above 9000 feet. Below that, we struggled to get any appreciable accumulation. Too warm, which we knew going into the storm. Please let the next storm be colder!

Snow up high, rain below. You can *see* the snow level in the color change of the sky. This is an interesting visual.

As we expected, so far it's been all about elevation. Up at >9500ft, we saw ~6" of snow overnight, and it will continue to snow all day into tonight. Down lower, DV's snow stake elevation just switched from rain to snow.

Pro Tip: Viewing our maps in 3D with the webcams turned on lets you see exactly where on the mountain the rain turns to snow.

It’s been snowing at the top of @brianheadresort for most of the day. Now, it’s finally snowing at the base.

I'm pretty sure I've used the term "snow level" more in my forecasts in the past 12 months than I did in the preceding 15 previous years combined.

The heart of the upcoming storm will be Sunday into Monday. Not a ton of cold air, and what it does have will be slow to arrive. It should be a decent snow producer way up high (>9500ft), but will probably struggle for meaningful accumulations at the resort bases.
