Saturday Recap

Saturday offered a bit of new snow for first chair, the weather was dry for most of the day, and then on Saturday night, the next storm tracked to the north and dusted the mountain with a coating to 1 inch of snow.

Sunday (March 30)

Lingering morning showers and clouds should dissipate, and then showers may return during the afternoon. The high temperature will be around 30°F.

Monday (March 31)

Monday should be dry with partly cloudy skies and a high in the 30s.

Tuesday & Wednesday (April 1-2)

The third storm in the sequence should bring 5-10 inches of snow from Monday night through Tuesday night, and with some luck, there's a chance for up to about 12 inches of accumulation.

This means that Tuesday will start with some powder and conditions should get deeper through the day.

At least some additional snow should accumulate on Tuesday night, which should lead to soft/powder conditions on Wednesday morning's first chair.

This storm will be cool, with temperatures in the teens and 20s, so the snow quality should be reasonably fluffy.

Longer Range

I think Thursday and Friday (April 3-4) will be showery with maybe a few inches of snow accumulation and high temperatures in the 20s.

Then, during the weekend of April 5-6, a storm will track to the south of Colorado. This is often a decently favorable track for Telluride, so there should be at least some new snow during closing weekend.
