Sunday

We’ll enjoy one more sunny day ahead of a very snowy week. Temps will be in the teens to low 20s ahead of increasing wind speeds and cloud coverage on Sunday afternoon/evening.

Monday - Friday

We’ll be tracking three distinct waves of snowfall through next weekend, with the first two waves coming on Monday and into Tuesday, followed by the second from Tuesday night through Thursday.

For the first wave, expect snowfall to ramp up around midday Monday, with the heaviest snowfall rates on Monday afternoon and evening. Last chair Monday and first chair Tuesday could offer soft turns with 2-4 inches.

Following a slight break on Tuesday, we’ll then be tracking a stronger wave from Tuesday night through Wednesday. Temps will also be cooler so we can expect a fluffier snow quality. In total, we’ll go with an early forecast of 4-8 inches, with the best turns around midday Wednesday and first chair Thursday.

We’ll then be watching for additional snow showers on Thursday and Friday with light totals and temps only climbing into teens.

Next Weekend & Beyond

Following a very active week, we’ll receive yet another storm around next weekend, March 25-26, ahead of yet another storm around March 29-31. March started active and will end active and that’s all that we can ask for.

Thanks for reading!
