Steamboat Daily Snow

By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 6 years ago February 9, 2019
Update
Saturday
There is a temperature inversion where morning readings will be colder at the base and warmer at mid-mountain and the summit. We will see highs in the 20s with some sunshine and also increasing clouds ahead of the next storm.
Next Three Storms
The first system on Saturday night is still on track to bring a coating to two inches of snow between Saturday sunset and Sunday sunrise.
The second system on Sunday night and Monday morning is also on track and should deliver 2-5 inches of snow. The softest conditions should be Monday late morning or early afternoon.
And I still like the look of the third and strongest storm with 4-8 inches between late Wednesday night and Friday morning. Thursday has a pretty good shot at being a powder day with powder possibly extending to Friday morning as well.
Beyond that, I think Friday and most of Saturday will be dry, then additional storms will likely return starting Sunday, February 17 and chances for snow will continue through the following week (at least until about February 24th).
Thanks for reading and check back each morning for daily updates!
