Winter Park Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 3 years ago February 14, 2021
Cooler on Sunday, more snow on Monday night and Tuesday at Winter Park
Summary
Saturday night brought just light snow. Expect a more significant snowfall from Monday night through Tuesday night with powder likely on Tuesday and soft conditions on Wednesday morning.
Short Term Forecast
On Saturday afternoon and Saturday night, we saw mostly light snow with a coating to 1 inch accumulating across the mountain. On Saturday night, we also saw colder temperatures move in and Sunday morning’s readings are now in the single digits to teens. If you’re heading out on Sunday, enjoy the soft snow and dress warmly.
Monday will be a mostly dry day.
Then from Monday afternoon through Tuesday night, the next storm should bring significant snowfall with accumulations between 5-10+ inches. Tuesday should be a powder day with conditions getting deeper through the day. If snow hangs on through Tuesday evening, then Wednesday morning will also be soft.
Extended Forecast
On Wednesday and Thursday, we’ll see mixed weather with some times of showers and some times of dry conditions and sunshine.
Then I am reasonably excited about the mid-range forecast which shows multiple chances for snow between Friday, February 19, and Tuesday, February 23. It will not snow during this entire period, but multiple storms could create multiple powder days or at least soft and fun conditions.
In the longer-range forecast, we should see drier weather between about February 24-27, and then an active pattern could return as we head into early March.
Thanks for reading and check back each morning for daily updates!
