Saturday

Saturday was sunny and the high temperature was in the mid-20s. After a week of cloudy skies, this weather felt wonderful!

Sunday and Monday

We will see mostly sunny skies on Sunday and Monday, though a few clouds to our north may sneak over the mountain at times. Both days will be dry with a high in the low 30s.

Tuesday and Wednesday

We will see sunshine and warmer temperatures with highs in the mid-to-upper 30s. Due to the warmth during the day, and colder temperatures at night, there could be a melt/freeze crust on some slopes with crunchy conditions in the morning.

Thursday

The dry weather will continue on Thursday, though clouds ahead of our next storm will begin to filter the sunshine. The high temperatures should be in the mid-30s.

Friday, February 2 to Sunday, February 4

The next storm will arrive in Colorado with snow likely from Friday through Sunday.

Even though we are one day closer to this storm, I still have low confidence in the details of the forecast.

The track of this storm will be from southwest to northeast, and generally, that is NOT a favorable setup for high snow amounts at Copper. However, with the storm potentially strengthening and sticking around the area for a couple of days, 72-hour snow totals could still be respectable. We'll see.

Thanks for reading!
