Heavy Snow and Wintry Mix Hit the Western U.S. and Upper Midwest, 02-18 to 02-20
Updated Wed Feb 18th 2026, 2:32am PST

Get ready for a busy weather mid-week as heavy snowfall blankets the Sierra Nevada and Intermountain West. Wintry weather will also sweep from the Upper Midwest to New England, while a new storm targets the Northern and Central Plains midweek. Meanwhile, the western U.S. faces cooler-than-average temperatures, contrasting with warmer conditions in the central and eastern states. Let's break it down:

Snowy Sierra & Beyond

On Wednesday, a strong storm system brings lots of moisture to the Pacific Northwest and northern Rockies. This means heavy snow for the Cascades, Sierra Nevada, and Rockies, where some areas could see over 8 inches of accumulation, especially in southern Cascades and southern Oregon. The snowfall will start to let up by late Thursday but expect more snow in the Sierra Nevada through Friday. Why snow? This is due to the cold air moving in along the storm's path.

Wintry Mix in the Midwest

As a front moves across the Plains to the Upper Midwest on Wednesday, expect a mix of rain and snow. The wintry mix will turn to snow, bringing moderate accumulations to the Northern High Plains, and heavier snow for the Northern/Central Plains on Thursday. As moisture from the Gulf moves in, expect thunderstorms with gusty winds and possible tornadoes, especially in the lower Ohio Valley on Thursday.

Chilly West and Warm East

Wednesday through midweek features a weather split across the country. The western U.S. remains cool with temperatures in the 30s and 40s, while the Central Plains and Midwest enjoy unusually warm weather, with highs in the 70s -- 30 to 40 degrees above February norms. Expect the warm spell to extend eastward, with the Ohio Valley seeing 50s and 60s, while the Southeast basks in 70s and 80s.
