It was a much wetter than normal August here in Jackson, as well as in most of Idaho and Wyoming. The Southwestern US from Arizona to Utah was exceptionally wet also.
Early in August it was all about the monsoon, then it was about some cold Low pressure systems the last two weekends, that left behind some decent snowfall in the higher Tetons.
Read all about his past August’s weather in the Mountain Weather column of this week’s Jackson Hole News & Guide.
Some pics of the snow up high in the Tetons from these last two storms below:
These first three are from the first cold storm August 22 to 24, 2014
