Wednesday delivered some flurries with little accumulation, then on Wednesday evening, the storm moved through as expected with 3-4 inches of snow across the mountain. After that, late at night, an additional wave of (unexpected) snow fell with 3-4 additional inches. This brought our snow total to 7-8 inches.

On Thursday morning, this new snow will be fun to ride, and dress warmly as skies will be mostly cloudy and temperatures will be in the single digits.

Friday will be sunny with a high temperature in the 20s.

Saturday will be partly sunny with high clouds filtering the sunshine and a warm high temperature in the 30s.

On Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, each day will have a high temperature in the 20s, skies should be partly cloudy, and there might be a few snow showers from storm systems that will pass to our north and our south.

Then from Tuesday night through Wednesday night, a strong storm should track across southern Colorado. This storm could bring the most snow to mountains that are to our south and to our east, but the system is still 6+ days away, so we'll refrain from focusing on the forecast details for at least another day or two.
