Steamboat Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 1 year ago February 27, 2023
Snow through midweek
Summary
Multiple storms will bring chances for snow every day through Wednesday.
Update
Sunday morning was dry, then a storm brought snow squalls on Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. These squalls delivered 1-2 inches of snow across the mountain as of Monday at 5:00 a.m.
Now on Monday morning, another wave of storm energy is moving across northern Colorado and this is creating another round of snow (as we can see on the base area cam as of 7:00 a.m. below).
The snow on Monday morning should amount to a couple of inches, and then we'll see the snow wind down on Monday afternoon and Monday evening.
The next storm will move across Colorado on Tuesday, and while the most snow from this system should fall to the south of us, we should see still at least a few inches of accumulation, maybe in the 2-4 inch range.
And after that, yet another storm will move across Colorado on Wednesday, though this system will track far to our south and we will likely see just light snow with a few inches of accumulation possible on Wednesday into Thursday morning.
Then Thursday and Thursday night should be dry, yet the storm train will continue, as Friday will bring another system, and this storm will track across northern Colorado and could bring 2-4 inches of snow from sometime on Friday into Friday night.
Thanks for reading!
