"A warm, windy midweek storm cycle across the Northern Rockies will be followed by a sharper cool-down late week, improving snow quality as snow levels crash and temperatures tumble. Early light snow favors the Canadian Rockies, then a milder surge Wednesday night through Friday brings higher snow levels and denser accumulations at many Idaho and Wyoming resorts before a colder Friday night into Saturday finish drops snow levels to the valley floors and boosts SLRs into much fluffier territory;"
"Snow levels stay low here (generally around 1,000-4,500 feet), keeping precipitation solidly snow at the ski areas, with temperatures mostly in the teens to 20s and SLRs commonly in the 14-18:1 range for notably good quality. Totals are modest but steady: Banff Sunshine and Mount Norquay each pick up a few inches through Thursday, while Big White posts its first round of light accumulation through Wednesday night with SLRs near 9-12:1, so expect a denser layer mixed in with the drier flakes."
A warm, windy midweek storm cycle will impact the Northern Rockies, followed by a sharper late-week cool-down that improves snow quality as snow levels crash and temperatures tumble. Early light snow favors the Canadian Rockies with low snow levels (1,000–4,500 ft), cold temps in the teens to 20s, and high SLRs around 14–18:1 yielding good snow quality but modest totals. A milder surge Wednesday night through Friday raises snow levels to 6,000–9,000 ft across Idaho, western Montana, and western Wyoming, producing denser accumulations at higher terrain. A cold Friday night into Saturday drops snow levels to valley floors and increases powderiness, with Brundage topping around 14–20″ and many resorts 7–13″.
