Wednesday

On Wednesday morning, it's snowing!

Telluride received about 1 inch of snow on Tuesday night, and as the storm tracks over southern Colorado during the day, there should be 3-5 inches of new snow with a high temperature in the low-to-mid 20s. Enjoy the flakes!

Then on Wednesday evening, the snow should wind down, though there could be a few lingering showers.

Thursday

Thursday may start with softer turns from the snow that fell on Wednesday. Otherwise, Thursday should be mostly dry with partly sunny skies and a high temperature in the upper 20s.

Thursday Night & Friday

A fast-moving storm will deliver snow on Thursday night, with 2-4 inches possible from Thursday night through Friday morning. The conditions on Friday morning should be pretty soft, and we may see a break in the snowfall on Friday with a high temperature in the low 20s.

Friday Night & Saturday

Another fast-moving storm will deliver additional snow on Friday night. This storm should be stronger than the system on Thursday night, so more snow is possible with 3-5 inches of accumulation. Keep an eye on this storm as it might produce enough snow for powder on Saturday morning.

Longer Range

I think Sunday, December 29 will be dry, and then the next storm should bring snow from Sunday night through Monday night, though this storm might track mostly north of Telluride.

After that, there will likely be a few days of drier weather from January 1-4, and then more snow is possible during the January 5-7 timeframe.
