On Tuesday we saw light snow during the day with 1 inch of accumulation.

Then on Tuesday night, a wind from the north and northeast dropped 4 additional fluffy inches which brought our storm total to 6 inches (1 on Monday night, 1 on Tuesday, 4 on Tuesday night). This was roughly in line with the forecast and I am glad to see that the storm worked out!

Wednesday will be a mostly sunny and a mostly dry day as the storm moves away, yet temperatures will remain chilly with highs in the teens.

Thursday, December 3 will be dry and warmer with high temperatures in the 20s. It should be a fun opening day with some potential powder stashes depending on what terrain is available.

From Friday, December 4 through Thursday, December 10, look for dry weather, lots of sunshine, and warmer temperatures with daily highs in the upper 20s to mid 30s.

Our next chance for a storm should be around Friday, December 11. There will actually be two storms around this time, one tracking toward Colorado from the northwest, and one tracking toward Colorado from the southwest. If the energy from these storms can combine, or at least if the southern storm brings a lot of moisture, perhaps we can grab significant snow totals. The systems are still 9 days away so all we can do is hope for the best and fine-tune the forecast as the time gets closer.

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