Thursday and Friday should be picture-perfect days with morning lows in the teens, daytime highs in the 30s, and lots of sunshine.

On Saturday, expect clouds to increase during the day, with light snow beginning during the late afternoon or early evening. On Saturday night, snow will likely intensify, and I think you’ll wake up on Sunday morning to 3-6 inches of fresh powder with light snow continuing to fall through mid-morning. Plan to ski on Sunday morning to take advantage of the new flakes!

From Sunday evening through Tuesday morning I think we’ll see dry weather, then the next storm will bring snow sometime between late Tuesday through Friday, January 12th. I do not think it will snow during this whole window, but I cannot pinpoint the timing or track of the storm just yet, so I’ll leave the forecast more general and we will fill in the details over the next few days.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for an update each morning!
