Tuesday Recap
On Tuesday, the storm arrived around midday, and by the last chair, 5 inches of snow accumulated across the mountain.
On Tuesday night, the snow intensified with 8 inches of additional accumulation.
Wednesday (Mar 19)
Wednesday morning will offer super fun powder conditions due to the 8 inches of snow that fell on Tuesday night plus a little more that accumulated on Wednesday morning.
During the day, snow showers will likely continue with 1-3 inches of accumulation, and temperatures will stay in the teens. This will keep the snow surface soft.
Thursday (Mar 20)
Thursday should be dry, partly sunny, and warmer with a high temperature in the upper 20s.
Friday (Mar 21)
A fast-moving storm on Thursday night will track to the north of Telluride and should bring a few flakes to maybe a coating of snow by Friday mid-morning. Friday's high temperature should be in the upper 20s.
Saturday & Sunday (Mar 22-23)
On Saturday and Sunday, a storm will track across northern Colorado. While most of the storm's impact will stay to the north of Telluride, there could be some clouds and snow showers at times.
Monday to Friday (Mar 24-28)
From Monday to Friday, expect mostly sunny and warm weather with high temperatures in the 40s. It'll feel like spring.
Saturday to Monday (Mar 29-31)
Most of the longer-range models show a high chance that the next storm will track into Colorado during the final few days of March, and I think snow is likely from later Saturday through Sunday (March 29-30).
