Friday was a sunny and warm day with afternoon high temperature reaching 40F.

Saturday will be similar to Friday with sunny skies and afternoon highs in the upper 30s to mid-40s.

On Sunday morning, you’ll wake up to dry weather and perhaps some sunshine and breezy conditions. Then expect a cold front and snow to start between about noon and 100 pm with snow continuing through Sunday afternoon, Sunday evening, and Sunday night.

I think we’ll see 1-3 inches of snow accumulate on Sunday midday and afternoon, so expect soft turns during the second half of the day. Then after lifts close on Sunday afternoon, we should see snow showers continue through the evening with an additional 2-4 inches of accumulation. Some models show that the wrap-around flow from the west-northwest could deliver more snow than this, so keep your eye on the snow-stake camera at mid-mountain to see if the snow is piling up. Later on Sunday night, I think temperatures will become too cold for big snow accumulations, so the sweet spot for our chance of more-than-expected snowfall will be on Sunday late afternoon and evening.

Then on Monday, you’ll find soft and untracked powder in the morning (due to the snow that fell on Sunday evening) and dress warmly as we’ll see temperatures in the teens with lingering clouds and snow showers.

From Tuesday through Friday expect dry weather with comfortable temperatures (in the 20s and 30s), and the next chance for snow will be sometime between Friday night and Sunday (March 9-11).

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for an update each morning!
