Saturday
On Friday night and Saturday, Telluride will just miss most of the snow as the storm will track over the northern and central mountains of Colorado. There are some flakes in the air as of Saturday at sunrise, but I don't think they will amount to much/any accumulation.
Saturday's high temperature will be in the upper 20s, and wind speeds will be slower and not much of an issue.
Longer Range
On Saturday night and Sunday, moisture and the jet stream will stick around, and there could be additional snow showers, though most or all of this snow should stay just to the north of Telluride.
On Monday, February 10, there should be snow showers with maybe a few inches of accumulation.
From Tuesday, February 11, to Thursday, February 13, there could be snow showers with another few inches of accumulation and softening snow conditions.
Around Friday, February 14, to Saturday, February 15, the next storm could bring snow and the latest data continues to show that accumulations could be significant (more than 10 inches) as a lot of moisture pushes into Colorado from the southwest.
Then from Sunday, February 16 through the following week, one or two storms should track close to or through Colorado and will likely bring more snow.
