Opening Day is scheduled for Friday, November 15th!

Here is a list of terrain and lifts that will be open: https://www.steamboat.com/things-to-do/events/steamboat-opening-day

Last night, Sunday night, a weak system side-swiped northeastern Colorado and a few flakes fell on the mountain. The sun should return by Monday late-morning, though Monday will be a chilly day with highs in the teens and 20s, and nighttime lows in the teens which will support more efficient snowmaking.

Looking ahead to the week, we’ll see mostly sunny weather with daytime high temperatures in the 30s and nighttime lows in the 20s.

Our next chance for snow will be from Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning when a fast-moving storm should deliver 1-4 inches. I’ll dial in this forecast over the next few days, so stay tuned. This will likely not be a big storm, but every flake counts and it’ll be good to see fresh snow when you wake up on Sunday morning.

Looking at the long-range forecast, I am cautiously optimistic that next week’s weather pattern will be more active compared to the first two weeks of November. Chances are increasing that, during next week, we’ll see one or two stronger storms move close to Colorado, and if we’re lucky, at least one of the systems could bring us a healthy amount of snow.

Thanks for reading and check back each morning for daily updates!
