Jackson Hole Weekly Weather Tips

That blast of Arctic air that descended over Jackson Hole the last couple of days (temps in the town of Jackson were clocked at -26F!) are slowly easing up... slowly. Highs this week will be in the mid-20's with lows still dipping into the single digit negatives. Snow showers are on the way for Friday and Saturday!
Jackson Hole Weekly Weather Tips

Instead of relying on the default weather app on your smartphone, we recommend using our local resource, mountainweather.com/forecast. Every morning year-round, Jackson Hole meteorologist Jim Woodmencey interprets the local weather patterns to create a forecast, offering an informed sense of what to expect so you can plan and dress accordingly. 

We lovingly pair this weekly Jackson Hole Weather Guide with a few favorite Jackson Hole Calendar of Events this week to make your planning a breeze.
