It'll be sunny and dry this week, so enjoy the rare December warmth. I'd rather see it snow and be chilly, but hey, if it's going to be dry, it might as well be warm, right? Then look forward to the weekend when snow should return to Copper, starting on Saturday and likely lasting into Sunday. I'm not all that optimistic about big accumulations, but a couple inches, up to 6, would be my call right now. Hopefully we'll be lucky and get to enjoy some fresh snow before the weekend ends.
