Saturday will be a powder day!

Snow starting at about 5 am and it will last for most of the day, tapering off between 1-3pm. My forecast is for a storm total of 4-8 inches, so even though the Saturday 5 am snow report showed zero inches, you’ll find deeper powder throughout the day, and your deepest run might be your last run in the afternoon.

Sunday will be a sunny and cold day with a morning temperature near zero, rising into the teens to low 20s by the middle of the day. Enjoy the blue skies and leftover powder stashes!

Then we’ll see clouds and perhaps light snow start on Monday and continue on Monday night into Tuesday. This storm will only graze Colorado as it then heads to the southwestern US. Later next week, the storm should get in gear and move back toward Colorado, and this could bring another chance for light snow between about Thursday and Saturday.

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