Copper Mountain Daily Snow

Heads up, there may be fresher snow! Read the latest Copper Mountain Daily Snow

By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 5 years ago January 18, 2019

Update

Friday

The official report is that 2 inches of snow fell on Thursday night at mid-mountain and this is reasonable as we were not expecting a lot of snow on Thursday night thanks to the unfavorable wind from the west-southwest.

We will see an additional 3-6+ inches of snow on Friday, and with temperatures dropping during the day thanks to a cool wind from the northwest, the snow quality will become fluffier and the powder should get deeper and ski conditions better through the day. Enjoy!

Weekend

If snow lingers on Friday evening (watch the mountain cams to see) then there will be additional fluffy powder to enjoy on Saturday morning. Otherwise, the weekend will be mostly dry with times of clouds and a few snow showers now and again.

Next Week

We’ll see two storms. The first storm will bring 3-6 inches on Monday into Monday evening with the softest powder on Monday during the afternoon. The second storm should bring light snow later in the week, around Thursday into Friday.

Thanks for reading and check back each morning for daily updates!
