Sunday was a mixed day with breaks of sunshine and also intense snow showers. The mid-mountain snow stake picked up about 2 inches, which was on top of the 2 inches that fell on Saturday night, so Sunday turned out to be a soft-ish day.

Now as we head into Monday, we'll leave the feeling of winter behind with a bunch of warm and dry days coming up. This week will feel like spring with high temperatures in the 40s from Monday through Friday, and we'll see mostly sunny skies as well. The only wrinkle in the forecast will be on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning when a fast-moving storm could drop anything from a dusting to an inch or two of snow, so there might be just a bit of powder to enjoy on top of the groomers on Wednesday morning.

At the end of the week, a strong storm will arrive sometime on Friday, with potentially intense rounds of snow from later Friday through Sunday. My early estimate is that we'll see 5-10 inches of accumulation during this time, with powder (or at least softer turns) on Saturday and Sunday.

My next post will be on Wednesday, April 20, and then I'll update daily through the weekend storm which will take us through closing day on Sunday, April 24.

Thanks for reading!
