On Tuesday and Tuesday night, snow showers continued with 7 inches at mid-mountain and 11 inches at the summit. Since about half of this snow fell after lifts closed on Tuesday afternoon, there will be plenty of fresh turns to enjoy on Wednesday morning. Have fun!

On Wednesday, most models show just light snow showers hanging around, but already another inch has accumulated around sunrise so there might be more snow than what is shown in the forecast.

From Wednesday night through Thursday, any lingering snow showers should finally dissipate and we’ll see drier weather as the storm will move off to the south and east.

But the break in the snow will only last about 24 hours.

The next storm will bring snow on Friday with at least a couple of inches of accumulation and conditions should soften throughout the day.

Then another storm will bring snow from about Saturday midday through Sunday midday. I still think 5-10 inches is a reasonable forecast with the most enjoyable turns either last chair on Saturday or more likely the first chair on Sunday.

Monday through Wednesday, February 22-24, should be dry.

Thursday, February 25 is about the time we should see our next chance for snow, and a stormy pattern could set up across the western US through about March 3rd with additional storms possible during this time.

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