Probabilistic Heavy Snow and Icing Discussion
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
226 AM EDT Thu Oct 2 2025

Valid 12Z Thu Oct 02 2025 - 12Z Sun Oct 05 2025

...Northern Rockies...
Day 3...

An upper low over the Great Basin on Friday opens into a trough and
shifts east over the Rockies late Saturday. Lee-side cyclogenesis
over western South Dakota occurs during this time enhancing flow
from Gulf-sourced moisture over the Plains through the northern
Rockies. Snow levels through Saturday are around 9000ft over the
Absarokas, Wind Rivers, and Bighorns, above which probs for >6"
snow from 12Z Saturday to 12Z Sunday are 40-80%.


The probability of significant icing is less than 10 percent.
