NWS Pocatello, ID wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jan 14, 3:40 AM MST, 1 hour 20 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Pocatello ID 340 AM MST Mon Jan 14 2019 .SHORT TERM...Today through Wednesday night. Pockets of fog are still occurring this morning under high pressure, mainly for the Magic Valley, Southern Highlands and portions of the Snake River Plain and Central mountains. The high pressure breaks down today ahead of a system moving through Tuesday. Tuesday look for a system moving into the area from the south. Expect 1 to 3 inches of snow mainly for upslope areas like the Wood river valley. Downslope areas like the I-86 corridor from Pocatello to Burley will see, in general, less than an half of a inch. Temperatures still look to be cold enough for snow though some downslope areas may be rain/snow mix. Wednesday snow amounts will be light with one to two inches possible particularly along the Southeast highlands extending up along the Eastern Highlands into Island Park. Heavier snow starts to arrive early Thursday morning with the next big system that will moving into the area. Temperatures will be near normal to slightly below normal today and tomorrow before rising above normal Wednesday. TW .LONG TERM...Thursday through Monday. Continue to look at a very wet system arriving Thursday. Looks like it will be a warm system. We could see some light snow in the valley floors Thursday morning, potentially affecting commutes. However, the bulk of the snow will arrive late morning and afternoon when snow levels are expected to rise above 5000 feet. Early indications of snow amounts are for 5 to 10 inches above 5000 feet with up to 3 inches in the Snake Plain and Magic Valley and 2 to 5 inches for eastern highland communities. Temperatures will play a dramatic factor in snow amounts for this system so the forecast amounts are very much "preliminary". This system exist the area by Friday with some residual snow showers possible Friday and maybe Saturday. Both models continue to show another system arriving from the northwest Sunday into Monday. However, it looks like much of the energy with the system may dive well south of the region, so it may not be much of a snow maker for us. Valle && .AVIATION...Some areas of patchy fog are possible this morning. LIFR conditions will be possible for a few hours this morning where the fog develops until it lifts. Valle && .PIH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. &&
