Big Sky Daily Snow
By Bob Ambrose, Forecaster Posted 3 years ago April 9, 2021
April Pow
Summary
7 inches in the last 24-hours should make for some nice soft turns Friday under bluebird skies and cold (for April) temperatures. Soak it up as it will be short lived as another Pacific cold front will steamroll into Big Sky Saturday afternoon bringing once again, wild winds and intense snow showers. Accumulations of 2 to 4 inches through Saturday night should make riding on Sunday pretty nice too
Update
Today:
At 7:00AM it’s 14 degrees in the Village and 9 degrees at the 8800’ level of Andesite Mountain. 7 inches new snow fell in the last 24-hours, 3 inches of it overnight. Currently the skies are clear over Lone and Andesite mountains. Current winds at the top of Andesite (8850’) are blowing from the West at 3 mph with a recent gust to 8 mph.
