I have returned to the internet following my four-day, three-night hut trip in the mountains west of Leadville. Thanks to Sam Collentine for writing the Winter Park Daily Snow while I was gone.

The calendar shows that we are clearly into springtime, but four storms will likely bring snow to Winter Park during the next 10 days, so ski season is far from over!

The first storm is already bringing clouds and flurries to Winter Park on Monday morning, though snow accumulations through the day on Monday should be light, and we'll likely see some sunshine.

Then light-to-moderate snow should hit Winter Park on Monday night into Tuesday morning. The track of the storm to our south and a wind direction from the east are OK factors for deeper snow totals, so I'll go with a forecast of 3-6 inches. The foothills to the east of the continental divide (to the east of Winter Park) might wind up getting the deepest snow, but I am optimistic that enough storm energy will be present to bring snow up and over the divide to Winter Park. Expect the best chance for powder on Tuesday morning.

Following dry weather on Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night, the second storm will bring a few snow showers on Wednesday with intense snow likely on Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Accumulations from this system could be 3-6 or 4-8 inches with powder likely on Thursday morning.

After dry and sunny weather from Thursday afternoon to Saturday, the third storm should bring snow from Sunday through Monday, with the best chance for powder on Sunday afternoon or Monday morning and storm totals again in the 3-6 or 4-8 inch range.

Then the fourth storm should hit Colorado on or around April 5-6th.

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