Monday, Feb. 3, 2025, 7:15AM: Heavy snow and strong wind have created very dangerous avalanche conditions in the mountains of western Wyoming. Slabs ranging from 1 to 3 feet in depth will be reactive to the weight of a skier or snowmobile. Natural avalanches are possible in wind loaded mid/upper elevation terrain and low elevation terrain where the snowpack is saturated from rain. Traveling in, near, or under avalanche terrain is not recommended today.

Yesterday (Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025) precipitation continued with the atmospheric river as temperatures increased during the day. Snow total over the last 24 hours was around 10" across all zones. Snow levels increased to between 7,000-8,000’, resulting in rain in the lower to middle elevations. Lower elevations weather stations reported 1" of rain. The majority of precipitation fell during the daylight hours.

Another pulse of moisture began early this morning, favoring the Tetons and Togwotee. Strong to gale force southwest wind ramped up yesterday to 20-40 mph with gusts 60-70 mph. Stronger southwest wind was recorded in the southern portions of the forecast area over 80 mph with gusts over 110 mph.
