Telluride Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 8 months ago March 30, 2024
Warm on Saturday, snow on Sunday
Summary
Saturday will be warm and dry, and then snow will fall through the afternoon and evening on Sunday.
Update
Friday
Friday was mixed with a few snow showers and mostly cloudy skies.
Saturday
Saturday will again be dry and mostly cloudy with a high temperature in the upper 20s to low 30s.
Sunday
The next round of snow will fall between Sunday mid-morning and Sunday at midnight. This snowfall is looking less impressive on the latest forecasts, so perhaps we'll only see 3-6 inches of new snow. Due to warm-ish temperatures in the 20s the new snow will be rather dense at first and then maybe become fluffier later in the afternoon and during the evening.
Monday
Monday could start with some powder from the snowfall on Sunday afternoon and evening, and the weather during the day will be mixed with some sunshine and some snow showers. Snowfall could be in the range of 1-3 inches and the high temperature will be in the 20s.
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
All four of these days should be dry, mostly sunny, and warm with a high in the 30s to low 40s. It'll be full-on spring riding conditions.
Longer Range
Our next chance for snow will be during the closing weekend of April 6-7. At this point, I think the amount of new snow will be 'moderate', maybe below "powder" status.
My next update will be Sunday morning.
Thanks for reading!
