Next Week

Good news!

Next week, multiple storms from the Pacific Northwest should push into Colorado with a respectable total snowfall of potentially 5-10+ inches.

While no single storm in this series will likely bring significant/deep snow, the combination of light-to-moderate snow totals across 5+ days should create fun and softer conditions.

• Monday/Tuesday, December 23-24. A weak storm could bring a few inches of snow.
  
  
• Wednesday/Thursday, December 25-26. A stronger storm could bring moderate snow totals.
  
  
• Friday/Saturday, December 27-28. A single storm or multiple weaker storms may bring moderate snow totals.
  
  
• Monday, December 30 to Thursday, January 2. Another storm, or a series of storms, may again deliver moderate snow totals.

There is a chance that some of these storms will track a little to the north of Telluride, bringing less snow to Colorado's southern mountains.

During the next few days, it'll be fun (and potentially frustrating) as we watch the model forecast trends and try to dial in the details of the likely snowfall next week. Stay tuned!
