Snow Forecast

View → 10-Day Snow Forecast

Monday will be our final day of dry and windy conditions ahead of snow returning on Tuesday. Look for increasing cloud coverage, wind gusts of 30-50 MPH, and temps climbing into the 40s.

We should then stay dry through Monday night and into Tuesday morning ahead of snow showers developing by midday Tuesday. These snow showers will continue off-and-on through Tuesday afternoon ahead of a chance for steadier snow and a few quick bursts of intense snowfall on Tuesday evening and into Tuesday night. In total, look for 4-8 inches come Wednesday morning and fun late-season powder for first chair.

Snow showers will then continue through Wednesday, though any additional snow totals will be light. Temps will climb into the 30s on Wednesday afternoon ahead of a hard freeze on Wednesday night as temps drop into the teens.

Extended Forecast

Mild and dry weather will return on Thursday (4/29) and continue through Sunday (5/2). Expect beautiful weather each day and spring corn conditions.

We'll then be watching early next week (May 3/4) for another round of snow, though very warm temperatures will likely limit our chances at significant accumulations.

Thanks for reading! Next update on Wednesday (4/28).
