Steamboat Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 10 months ago March 7, 2024
Flakes through Friday, then dry, then a storm mid next week
Summary
The storm on Thursday and Friday could bring us a little more snow, then the weekend will be dry. Our next chance for more snow will be during the middle of next week.
Update
Wednesday
Wednesday's weather was mostly dry with a few snow showers and a few breaks of sunshine.
Thursday
The weather on Thursday morning is dry with partly-to-mostly cloudy skies.
It'll be a mixed day with drier weather in the morning and then a higher chance for snow showers during the afternoon and evening. We may see light snow accumulations of a dusting to perhaps an inch or two. The high temperature will be in the upper 20s.
Friday
Friday should be similar to Thursday with drier weather in the morning and then a higher chance for snow showers during the afternoon and evening. And again, we may see light snow accumulations of a dusting to perhaps an inch or two during the second half of the day and into the evening. The high temperature will be in the low 20s.
Saturday & Sunday
Both Saturday and Sunday will be dry and mostly sunny. The high temperature on Saturday should be around 30°F and the high temperature on Sunday will be a little warmer, in the low 30s.
Next Week
Monday, March 11 should be dry with increasing clouds, Tuesday, March 12 should bring some snow showers, and then from Wednesday, March 13, to Friday, March 15, a storm will likely bring snow to all of Colorado. For the storm between March 13-15, my initial estimate is that it will track to the south of Colorado and bring more snow to eastern and southern areas and perhaps less snow to our area in the north.
My next update will be Friday morning.
Thanks for reading!
