26 April 2015 –  A large storm will slowly move through the region depositing as much as a foot (30 cm) of very wet snow in the western and central mountains. Significant snow is also expected for Dubois and the Upper Green River Basin Foothills including Pinedale and Bondurant areas.

A widespread area of valley rain, mountain snow has developed across the Wind River Basin and the Upper Green River Basin. Snow levels are expected to lower to around 6500 feet overnight. The heaviest precipitation with this system is expected to occur between midnight through about 9 a.m. this morning when snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour are possible. The precipitation will hang around through the day before ending from northwest to southeast tonight.

IMPACTS: South Pass and Togwotee Pass (especially towards Dubois) will be severely impacted this morning. Expect winter driving conditions with roads becoming extremely slick and snow packed.
