Telluride Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 8 months ago March 6, 2024
Snow through Friday night
Summary
We should see additional snow accumulating through Friday night, and then the weekend will transition to dry and mostly sunny weather.
Update
Tuesday
Tuesday was partly sunny with a few showers lingering around, though we saw no accumulation.
Wednesday
On Wednesday, weak storm energy will traverse Colorado and we could see a few snow showers, likely with little to no accumulation. The high temperature will be in the 20s.
Thursday & Friday
From Thursday midday to Friday night, a more organized storm will track south of Colorado. This is a decently favorable storm track for Telluride, so I think that our snow totals will be in the 5-10-inch range. The high temperature on both Thursday and Friday will be in the 20s, and the best chance to ride powder will likely be Friday morning and again on Saturday morning.
Saturday & Sunday (March 9-10)
I think Saturday and Sunday will be dry and mostly sunny with high temperatures in the low 30°F.
Next Week (March 11-15)
On Monday and Tuesday (March 11-12), we could see anything from dry and partly cloudy weather to some accumulating snow, and it depends on the strength of the storm energy that will push into Colorado early in the week.
From Wednesday, March 13, and Friday, March 15, I have increased confidence that a storm will track close to Colorado, though it is too soon to know which of our state's mountains will be favored for the most snow.
My next update will be Thursday morning.
Thanks for reading!
