Tuesday was mostly dry with just a bit of snow accumulation, and then on Tuesday night as the storm moved across Colorado, mid-mountain picked up 5-6 inches of snow with deeper snowfall at the summit.

During the day on Wednesday, a northwest wind behind the storm should keep snow in the air with a few inches of accumulation, though a northwest wind is not ideal, so I do not expect an upside surprise unless the actual wind direction blows from more of a west-northwest direction. Temperatures on Wednesday will be in the teens.

On Thursday, we'll have dry weather with some sunshine and a chilly temperature in the teens.

On Friday, a storm will track to the south of Colorado and it's unlikely that we'll see much or any snow. The daytime temperature should once again be in the teens.

Then on Saturday, we'll have dry weather with a temperature in the lower teens, and on Sunday, a moisture-starved storm will keep temperatures cold (single digits to teens) and we should eke out a couple of inches of fresh snow.
