We've gotten off to a decent start for the ski season, but conditions remain marginal. The latest forecasts suggest that our best chance for snow this holiday weekend will be Friday when a weak short-wave trough brushes by us to the north. As things stand now, one computer model thinks it will be a weak event, the other a non event.

After the weak event on Friday, a high-amplitude ridge builds over Utah.

That means it will be sunny and warm in the mountains. In other words, beautiful weather and great travel conditions, but I'd like to have some fresh powder for which to give thanks this weekend.
