Likelihood of more than 4" of snow
Snow-to-Liquid Context (High-Ratio Snow)
This setup looks favorable for airy, fluffy snow thanks to the arctic air moving in .
A little water can make a lot of snow. Even modest moisture can pile up quickly.
4” can happen fast in heavier bands—especially in/near higher terrain and where upslope enhances snowfall.
Impacts can be sneaky, crew! They may include reduced visibility, quick road coverage, and wind-blown drifting (even with lighter wind Saturday) because of the low water content.
