Steamboat Daily Snow

Heads up, there may be fresher snow! Read the latest Steamboat Daily Snow

Enjoyable conditions:-)

Summary

Saturday's conditions were fun, and we could see a few more flakes through Monday.

Update

Saturday turned out to be more fun than expected due to the 'extra' snow that we received on Friday night into Saturday morning. And it kept snowing on Saturday with 3 inches of accumulation, for a storm total of 16 inches.

On Sunday and Monday, high temperatures will be in the teens and 20s, we'll likely see cloudy skies, and snow showers could hang around as more moisture moves across the northern mountains. The best chance for accumulating snow will likely be later Sunday night through Monday, and snowfall could range from a coating to maybe up to 5 inches.

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday will also have high temperatures in the 20s, and there is a low chance for snow showers each day as a storm tracks well to the south of Colorado.

From Friday through early the following week, high temperatures will warm into the 30s and we will likely see no new snow.

The next chance for snow will wait until sometime around or after December 20th. Let's hope that the final 10 days of the month produce a lot more snow than the middle 10 days of the month:-)

Thanks for reading!
