Again, up to 20" of snow will be possible for the high country, with blowing snow creating difficult travel on I-70, I-80 and I-15. By Tuesday afternoon/evening snow showers will be a lot more widespread across the Rockies. Still, the isolated snow showers can create difficult travel and quick accumulation. The Front Range of Colorado should stay mainly dry, as the mountains eat up a lot of the incoming moisture. A few snow showers can't be ruled out along and east of I-25 but the bigger story will be gusty winds and high fire danger east of the Rockies. We will see this pattern continue into Wednesday, where snow showers continue to impact the Intermountain West. Great news for Spring skiiers, not so great for travelers. We will be mainly dry on Wednesday afternoon and into Thursday morning. Another burst of snow arrives Thursday afternoon and evening for the high country leading to additional accumulation. In terms of accumulation, you can see the mountains will do the best with the multiday snow opportunity. We will see the bulk of the accumulation now through early Wednesday morning with the burst of snow coming on Thursday not yet making too much of an impact in this particular forecast.
