Western US Braces for 10 Feet of Snow!
12 Feb
Summary
- Models predict up to 10 feet of snow over the next 10 days.
- Western states face a significant snow deficit this year.
- Heavy snowfall is expected to benefit reservoirs and drought efforts.
Meteorologists are forecasting a dramatic shift in weather for the Western United States, with models predicting the region will receive up to 10 feet of snow over the next 10 days. This anticipated heavy snowfall comes as western states, including California, Utah, and Colorado, have experienced a notable deficit in snow accumulation this season.
The impending winter storms are expected to significantly boost the region's snowpack and reservoir levels, offering much-needed relief for drought-stricken areas. However, AccuWeather warns that the change in weather, while beneficial, may also lead to travel and operational disruptions across key transportation corridors.
Current winter storm warnings are in effect for parts of California, Wyoming, and Colorado, with additional precipitation expected to continue into next week. The National Weather Service is monitoring the situation closely, with the potential for above-average precipitation and below-average temperatures across California through February 25.
