A series of weather systems will bring modest snow amounts to area mountains through Saturday morning. There is high confidence in mountain snowfall, with a 50% probability for at least 4 inches above 4,500 feet along MT/ID border, including Lookout Pass. Valleys will primarily see light rainfall, and perhaps a mix of rain and snow during the overnight hours.
Seasonable temperatures are expected Thursday evening. A cold front will be moving across the Northern Rockies during the day Thursday, that will bring scattered valley rain and mountain snow showers around sunset. The heavier and more persistent precipitation will arrive during the overnight hours and early Friday morning.
A period of active weather will continue across the Northern Rockies later Saturday through Tuesday. Periodic pass level snowfall will be common, with slushy/snow covered roadways and reduced visibility. Valley locations will continue to see cool temperatures with a mix of rain and snow showers expected. The bulk of accumulating snowfall will occur above 4,000 feet but occasionally lower valleys may see a few slick spots on roadways.
