This Week

Monday through Friday will be warm and windy.

The high temperatures will be around 35-40°F and overnight lows might not drop below freezing. Also, winds will be strong with gusts of 25-40 mph at the summit.

A storm will track to the north of Telluride on Wednesday night and the accumulating snow should stay north of the mountain, though there is a low chance that a few flakes will make it to the southern mountains.

Saturday

On Friday night, a storm will bring snow to Colorado, though this storm may yet again track just a bit too far to the north to bring a lot of snow. If we're lucky, Saturday morning should offer some new snow with perhaps a coating to 2 inches of new snow.

Saturday will be cooler with a high temperature in the 20s, and wind speeds will be slower compared to the previous week and not much of an issue.

Longer Range

Sunday through the first half of the following week (February 9-12) should be dry with temperatures in the teens and 20s. Then the next potential storm could bring snow between about February 12-14.

On a personal note, last night I returned from our family ski trip and will be back on a normal daily posting schedule. Thanks for your understanding during the past two weeks as I attempted to balance time with family and frequent updates. In short, it was a dream trip for us, especially since our son (age 7) is in this beautiful age where he is a capable and helpful traveler, can ski most of the same terrain that my wife and I ski, and he's young enough that he still likes hanging out with his parents:-)

My next update will be on Tuesday morning. 

Thanks for reading!
