Expect similar weather each day this week with mostly sunny skies and a temperature inversion where the base is much colder than mid mountain during the morning hours. Temperatures on the hill should top out in the 30s to low 40s for the rest of the week, so don’t over dress and also don’t forget your sunscreen!

Our next chance for snow will arrive on Saturday night and last through Tuesday. I expect just light accumulations with times of snow showers mixed with periods of drier weather. Later next week, between about Thursday February 18th and Saturday February 20th, a storm of moderate strength should drop at least a few inches of snow on Steamboat, but I cannot provide any additional details at this time as the storm is still 7-9 days away. Check back right here every morning for an updated forecast!
