Saturday will be a gorgeous day with sunny skies and highs in the upper 30s.

Then we'll look ahead to two storms this week.

The first storm will be from Saturday night through Monday. This storm has a lot of moisture but ill-defined energy and I have very low confidence about if and when it could snow. I am keeping my expectations very low, though maybe we'll eke out a bit of snow now and again and we could see soft conditions, especially on Sunday morning.

The second storm will be from Monday night through Wednesday. This storm will have strong energy and we should see intense snow from Monday night through Tuesday with more than 6 inches possible. However, the winds will be very strong and this could close some lifts to not open, especially on Tuesday. I think Tuesday could be a stormy and tough day to ride, though there should be fresh snow. Wednesday might be the better day with stashes of powder and slower winds.

Looking farther ahead, we should end the week with dry and sunny weather on Thursday, April 7, and Friday, April 8.

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