Winter Park Daily Snow

Update
On Wednesday we saw a few snow showers blow through during the midday and afternoon hours, but none of these showers left measurable snowfall.
Now on Thursday, we’ll start the day with clear skies and temperatures ranging from 8F at the base to 10F at the summit, and the rest of the day should stay mostly sunny with a high temperature in the upper 20s.
On Thursday night, we could see a few clouds with light snow showers, but like Wednesday, it’s likely that these snow showers will not bring measurable snow.
On Friday and Saturday, expect the sunny weather to continue and temperatures will be warmer, topping out in the mid-to-upper 30s during the afternoon.
The next chance for significant snow will occur on Sunday as a storm brings flakes from late morning through evening. I think we’ll see 2-4 inches during the day and perhaps an additional 1-3 inches between late afternoon and Sunday evening. This timing means that you’ll likely find soft snow on Sunday midday and afternoon, and if we do see a bit of snow after lifts close on Sunday afternoon, then expect to find soft leftover powder on Monday morning.
After that storm, it looks like the majority of next week will be dry with the next chance for snow around the weekend of March 10-11. After that, we could see another storm roughly one week later, around the weekend of March 17-18.
Thanks for reading and stay tuned for an update each morning!
