Winter Park Daily Snow

Heads up, there may be fresher snow! Read the latest Winter Park Daily Snow

By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 5 years ago December 1, 2018

Update

With 3 inches of snow on Friday night and early Saturday morning, and snow falling now on Saturday morning, it’s another day with fresh snow at Winter Park. Get out and enjoy!

More snow on Saturday

A wave of storm energy (vorticity) is moving across western Colorado on Saturday and this will bring snow to Winter Park through midday with an additional 1-3 inches on top of the 3 inches that accumulated from Friday night. We’ve enjoyed fresh snow for three days in a row, and these multi-day storms are the key to creating super soft and fun conditions. Enjoy!

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday

A storm will track over southern Colorado and Winter Park should stay mostly dry during this time (though there could be a few snow showers now and again). All days will be chilly with highs in the teens.

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday

The best I can say is that we might see times of light snow with light to moderate accumulations. The storm track is not one that will favor northern Colorado, but a combination of moisture moving in from a southern storm and energy from a northern storm might combine to bring us some snow. Stay tuned.

Sunny December 9-11

We should see a break in the stormy weather from Sunday to Tuesday, December 9-11. These days will likely be sunnier and warmer.

Next storm on December 12

Most models show the next chance for snow will be around December 12-13 with another storm possible around the weekend of December 15-16. The storm train should continue to chug along!

Thanks for reading and check back each morning for daily updates!
