Weekly snow forecast by On the Snow meteorologist Chris Tomer:

A strong jet stream will push heavy snow into Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. I don't see much snow for California. The prime snow accumulation window is Sunday and Monday (Presidents Day). The Tetons, Wasatch, and Central and Northern Mountains of Colorado can expect 1-2 feet of total accumulation. A few heavier pockets are likely.

Full Video Forecast:

 

Tomer's Take for the best snow this week: 

Ski Schweitzer, Whistler/Blackcomb or Banff on Friday, ski Big Sky, Schweitzer, or Whistler/Blackcomb on Saturday, ski Jackson Hole, Grand Targhee, Alta, or Sun Valley on Sunday, and ski Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, Steamboat, or Breckenridge on Presidents Day.
