Telluride Daily Snow

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

Powder

Summary

Saturday brought wind, and Saturday night brought powder. Sunday and Monday should both be fun with fresh snow and soft conditions.

Update

Saturday was mostly cloudy as we waited for the incoming storm to arrive.

Saturday night was in line with what we want to see as snow fell all night resulting in about 4 inches of accumulation at mid-mountain.

Sunday will start with more powder than what you see on the snow stake cam because more snow will accumulate between 5 am and first chair. And we should see snow for a lot of the day with another 3-6+ inches of accumulation. Temperatures will be comfortable with readings in the teens.

Sunday night should bring more snow, though we might see lulls in the snow now and again. Additional accumulations could be in the 2-4 inch range.

Monday will likely offer soft/powder conditions due to the snow from Sunday and Sunday night. We could see a little new snow during the day, though I think most of the snow will stay just to our north. Temperatures will be in the teens.

Tuesday will offer a break in the snowfall with dry weather, partly sunny skies, and temperatures rising into the teens and low 20s by the afternoon.

The next storm could deliver some snow from Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning, and accumulations could be 1-4 inches.

The longer-range forecast then transitions to drier weather and high temperatures in the 20s from Friday, January 19 through about Monday, January 22. More snow will be possible around January 23-25.

Thanks for reading!
