On Friday morning, the final piece of energy from the storm cycle moved across Colorado and we managed to grab 1 inch of snow at mid-mountain.

Then Friday afternoon and Friday night were dry, and now on Saturday morning, the sky is partly cloudy. During the day on Saturday, we will likely see the partly cloudy skies continue and temperatures will be warmer than past days with a high of around 30°F.

Then on Sunday, the first half of the day should be dry, and then the next storm will bring snow from Sunday afternoon through Monday mid-morning. We might see a little snow accumulation by the end of the day on Sunday, then more snow will fall on Sunday night into Monday morning when the wind direction becomes more favorable (from the west or west-northwest). By Monday mid-morning we could see 2-5 inches of accumulation, with a chance for more than this due to the storm strengthening just to the east of Colorado, so keep your eye on Monday morning for a chance of softer turns thanks to this new snow.

For the rest of next week, we will see more snow from Monday evening through Thursday morning and there could be enough snow for legitimate powder at some point, though I still have low confidence in the details. I will keep a close watch on the forecast during the middle of next week (roughly February 28 - March 2) and will of course keep you updated.

Thanks for reading!
