Sunny Wednesday / More Snow Tonight
Summary
The upper reaches of Lone Mountain received around 10 inches from Monday night’s storm which has transformed the alpine areas into a powder heaven. Another wave late Wednesday night into Thursday looks to bring in an additional 3-6” refresher. Things then dry out Friday into the weekend.
