Rapid visibility reductions in bursts of heavy snow will be possible with the more organized squalls. DISCUSSION...Latest water vapor imagery indicates increasing large-scale ascent overspreading southern WY into northern CO -- in the left exit region of an approaching mid/upper-level jet streak. Mosaic radar data shows a related increase in snow showers along/ahead of an approaching cold front, and this activity should continue spreading southeastward into the evening/overnight hours. Over the next couple hours, the environment in the vicinity of these snow showers should become increasingly favorable for a couple organized snow squalls, given steepening low-level lapse rates, increasing ascent, and strengthening low-level flow. Rapid visibility reductions will be possible in bursts of heavy snow, especially with the more organized/banded snow squalls that can develop over the central Rockies into the overnight hours. ...Weinman.. 02/09/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9VEqErcjRN24CriqgaM4KQZzPC1GHD8I0dmxQTUkMwaeOQ743KQnJ921vJhYMm5aIA8yWkquV= V-D9sgN7jcHR5SNuSw$ for graphic product...
