Thursday delivered light snow during the day as a storm moved to the east.

On Thursday night, decent moisture combined with a favorable wind direction to create 2-3 inches of snow across the mountain.

Friday and Friday night will bring snow showers with light accumulations due to lingering moisture and a favorable wind from the northwest. Friday's temperature will be in the teens.

Saturday should start with soft conditions and any snow showers should end by the late morning. The high temperature should be around 10°F.

On Sunday and Monday, a storm will track to the south of Colorado and we'll see snow on Sunday with a few inches of accumulation and snow likely lingering into Monday morning. Temperatures on Sunday and Monday should be in the upper single digits to low teens, and the softest conditions could be late Sunday or early Monday due to the 2-6+ inches of new snow.

Tuesday should be dry with a high temperature in the teens.

Then Wednesday, January 10 to Saturday, January 13 will bring multiple storms, a high likelihood for multiple powder days (or at least soft-on-soft conditions), and high temperatures in the upper single digits to low teens.

Looking ahead to mid-January, we'll see more chances for storms and potentially frigid air for a couple of days.

Overall, mountain conditions should soften and be very fun for most of the next 1-2 weeks.
