Monday was dry and cloudy, then the storm arrived on Monday night.

The snow total on Tuesday morning is 7 inches at the mid-mountain snow stake.

The snow quality of Tuesday morning's powder should be medium fluff as temperatures were reasonably cold yet stronger winds likely made the snow a little thicker. On Tuesday morning through Tuesday early afternoon, there could be snow showers with a few inches of additional snow accumulation. Enjoy this early-season powder and dress warmly as the temperature on Tuesday will be in the single digits.

Wednesday and Thursday will be dry and mostly sunny.

On Friday, a storm will track to the west of Colorado and we will see snow, though I still have low confidence in the details. At this point, pencil in some snow with potential low-end powder and we'll fill in the details during the coming days.

On Saturday and Sunday, snow showers will be in the air across Colorado but I think accumulations for us will be light if anything.

On Monday and Tuesday, we'll have a higher chance for deeper snow totals as a storm crosses Colorado.

And on Wednesday (December 7), a final round of snow could keep conditions soft and powdery.

Then after Wednesday (December 7), we should head into a drier weather pattern for at least a few days.

Thanks for reading!
