Flow Across the Pacific

There's some good news, and some bad news, and some good news again.... about the flow across the Pacific over the next 5 to 7 days.

The first good news is, a Low pressure system this weekend will bring snow Saturday night and Sunday to Jackson Hole.

The bad news is, as we go into the middle and end of next week it looks like a Ridge of High pressure will build over the Western U.S. and Rockies and send storm systems that are lined up out in the Pacific right now to the north of us into Canada and SE Alaska.

The good news about that is..... any radiation that might be in that flow coming across the Pacific from Japan will also get diverted well to the north of Jackson Hole.
