Western U.S. Weather

As we look to the West, an upper-level system over the Four Corners will increase snowfall in the Central Rockies on Wednesday and Thursday. The system will then bring precipitation to the Central and Southern High Plains, impacting cities like Denver, CO. This will enforce cooler temperatures as the cold air filters in. A weakening Pacific front will also bring rain and mountain snow to the Northwest on Thursday, with cities like Seattle, WA seeing some rainfall. The snow will occur due to colder air in the high altitudes of the Rockies, while regional rain is due to milder conditions near sea level.

Overall, the impacts of these weather systems will vary, with rain, snow, and cooler temperatures expected in different parts of the country. Keep your umbrellas and winter gear handy!
