My forecast on Monday showed snowy pictures from western Canada as the storm track became more active in the northwest.

Now I want to show snowy pictures from Colorado and New Mexico where 6-12+ inches fell on Tuesday and Wednesday, October 30-31.

Taos, New Mexico reported just over a foot of snow.

Breckenridge, Colorado measured 11 inches.

Winter Park, in northern Colorado, measured 8 inches.

Beaver Creek also got in on the action with 6-7 inches.

Following the snow on Tuesday (October 30), clouds cleared on Wednesday (October 31) revealing winter-like scenes over the higher mountains.

Wolf Creek in southern Colorado reported a storm total of 16 inches.

And Arapahoe Basin in northern Colorado reported 4 inches and their summit cam shows a beautiful view to toward the north.

What’s coming up for the next 5-10 days? More of the same.

The snow forecast and storm track from Thursday, November 1 to Sunday, November 4 shows the most snow over British Columbia, Canada as well as Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, and northern Colorado.

The five days beyond, from Monday, November 5 to Friday, November 9, continue the storm track over the northwest. Yes, I know that the map below looks identical to the map above, but they are for different time periods. The storm track is simply not going to budge much over the coming 7-10 days.

It’s not until around Friday, November 9 or Saturday, November 10 that the storm track will likely start to shift eastward. This means that New England could see a return to colder air and snow on or after November 9th.

While the map above shows warmer (and perhaps drier) weather for the western US starting around Friday, November 9, some models hint at a bit of action lingering over the west, so we’ll look forward to updated forecasts.

Thanks for reading and look for the next forecast on Monday, November 5.
