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 March 25, 2019

Update

Monday Morning

Enjoy soft snow from the 1 inch that fell on Sunday and the 4 inches that accumulated on Sunday night. This was an inch or two more snow than I thought we’d see, which is good news! Get to this new snow early before the sun and warmer temperatures turn the snow heavy and thick by late morning and midday.

Monday 3/25 – Thursday 3/28

For precipitation, expect dry weather.

For sunshine, expect a lot of it on Monday, with high clouds filtering the sunshine from Tuesday through Thursday.

For temperatures, Monday will have an afternoon high in the 30s, and then we’ll see highs head into the 40s from Tuesday through Thursday. With these warmer temperatures, expect firm snow in the morning, and then conditions will soften during the late morning and should become soft and sometimes slushy by afternoon.

Enjoy this week of spring weather!

Friday 3/29 – Saturday 3/30

We should see a change in the weather with snow and cold temperatures arriving on Thursday night and continuing through Saturday morning. I am confident that temperatures will become colder, and I have very low confidences in potential snow totals. With lots of variability across all forecast models, I’m going to make my expectations low (under 6 inches) and will keep you updated as the storm moves closer.

Longer Range

Following dry weather from about March 30 to April 2, it’s likely that we’ll see another storm sometime around April 3.

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