Bogus Basin Discussion

Discussion Updated 1140L MST Wednesday, Feb 26, 2020 (the forecast is checked and sometimes edited daily) -

THE NEXT 2 DAYS: (feel free to copy/ paste this "next 2 days" discussion if desired, with credit link back to this page/ snowforecast.com)
Today and Thursday the ridge of high pressure weakens some as upper-level weather disturbances move through with mainly some clouds (partly to at times mostly cloudy skies, mostly to partly sunny for those with a more positive outlook...). Temperatures will not be as cold, but still cold enough for good snow preservation. Meteorologist/ Chris Manly

Friday (28th) the ridge of high pressure builds back in strong, with mostly sunny skies and milder temperatures.

Saturday and Sunday (Feb 29th/ Mar 1st) A strong looking low pressure system approaches southern/ central Idaho on Saturday, with increasing clouds expected, and some snow developing in the evening/ overnight. On Sunday the system moves through southern Idaho, but a portion of the energy will have split and dropped south (as we have seen so many times this season, becoming a closed low pressure system affecting California and the southwest deserts), for (despite this factor) additional moderate snow totals expected at Bogus Basin, possibly powder day criteria!

Next Monday through Wednesday (Mar 2nd - Mar 4th) A colder northwest flow aloft will produce light and frequent snowfall the first part of next week, for light to moderate snow totals expected at Bogus Basin and the rest of southern Idaho.

LONGER RANGE : High pressure ridging across the eastern Pacific should dominate until about the 7th of March, deflecting storms mostly to the north and east, for more sunny skies at Bogus Basin (late next week/ weekend) and across southern Idaho, as high pressure ridging over the eastern Pacific breaks down around the 5th/ 6th of March, and changes back to a busy pattern (more frequent snow storms) are then expected, mainly by/ after the 7th of March for the Northwest US including Bogus Basin. This more busy ("snowy") pattern should hold through and past mid-March. Meteorologist/ Chris Manly.
