Moab weather

I was hoping locals might give a little insight as to what's going on with the weather in the Fishers. I had planned to come last weekend and was scared off by a four straight day forcast for rain and now this coming weekend looks like the same. Is there a lot of snow out there right now? Weather nasty? Weather.com full of crap? Thanks for the beta

I was there this last weekend, good weather....about an hour of snow on sunday. a 40 percent chance of snow means a 60 percent chance it wont!

I would just start driving and repeat the whole car ride... "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert." "It doesn't rain in the desert."

Really it doesn't.

Not being pesimistic. It is always worth the drive.

It is cold cloudy and about to rain as of now..same in zion. we had a slush storm last night with thunder....can't see the mountains, getting hammered with snow.

Its kind of like how when it rained for three days in desolation canyon on the green, we told ourselves as we were paddling in the rain, " It doesn't rain in the desert"

I think the actual quote is:
"It never rains in the desert, but when it does, it pours."

Completely ridiculous, of course, but somehow accurate. I was in Moab one day when it rained over an inch! But this is very rare.

Reminds me of Dr. Offwidth's quote: "It was exactly the same, only different."
