On Saturday, we started the day with new snow that was pretty dense.

During the day on Saturday, we saw 2 inches of dense snow, then on Saturday night, an additional 4 inches of dense snow fell at mid-mountain.

Now on Sunday, we may see some dense snow during the morning, then the snow should slow down or end throughout the day with little snow on Sunday night as well.

On Monday, the next storm will cross Colorado and this should ramp up the snowfall and bring cooler temperatures with fluffier snow quality. On Monday night into Tuesday, a favorable wind from the west should keep the snow going. Total snowfall from Monday morning through Tuesday midday should be 8-16 inches, and the snow quality will be getting fluffier throughout the storm. There will be a chance for powder during Monday's last chair, and there will be an even higher chance for powder during Tuesday morning's first chair.

On Tuesday, Tuesday night, and Wednesday, snow showers could linger and we might see more than just a few inches of snow, though at this point I am keeping my expectations at just a few inches of snow each day and night.

Thursday will be dry, a rare calm day in this stormy pattern.

Then the next system will bring snow from Friday, January 6 to Saturday, January 7. There could be some powder during both Friday's last chair and Saturday's first chair.

Thanks for reading!
