3 Storms Over the Next 4 Days...

Summary

- We could see a break Sunday during the day but cold with winds gusting to 40+ mph over the ridges. Then by Sunday evening, the next weak system could move in with snow showers Sunday night into Monday morning. This system could bring 1-2 inches to the east side of the lake, and 2-4 inches to the west side. It stays cold into Monday with ridgetop wind gusts increasing to 50+ mph. - A wetter system moves in Monday night into Tuesday morning. We could see 3-6 inches of snow on the east side of the lake, and 6-10 inches on the west side with this storm. Winds Tuesday could be gusting to 70+ mph over the ridges, likely closing some upper mountain lifts. - We could see a break Wednesday but it stays cold. Ridgetop winds gusting to 45+ mph. Highs in the 20s on the upper mountains and 30s at lake level. - A stronger storm is possible Wednesday night into Thursday night. If the current forecast holds we could see 1-2 feet of snow with this storm. - A drier pattern may begin to build in for MLK weekend and continue through the week of the 20th. That doesn't mean a weakened storm couldn't push in.
