Winter Park Daily Snow

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

By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 3 years ago April 30, 2021

Warm Friday and Saturday, showery Sunday, snowy early next week

Summary

Enjoy the spring riding on Friday and Saturday with high temperatures in the 50s.

Short Term Forecast

Reminder: The Winter Park side is closed, and Mary Jane will remain open through Sunday, May 9.

On Friday and Saturday, we’ll see dry and warm weather with on-mountain high temperatures in the 50s. These two days will be gorgeous. Enjoy! The sunniest day will be on Friday with high clouds filtering the sunshine on Saturday.

On Saturday evening or Saturday night, there could be a brief shower.

On Sunday, look for showers to develop during the middle of the day and afternoon. These will likely be rain showers. They shouldn’t ruin the day by any means, just something to think about.

Then from Sunday night through Wednesday night, we’ll see times of showers and snowfall across the mountain. The total snow potential across these three days is about 6-12 inches, and the best chance to enjoy riding fresh (and soft) snow should be on Monday morning and again on Wednesday morning. Winter is hanging on!

Extended Forecast

Looking farther ahead, we should see dry weather from May 6-8, and then another storm could arrive just in time for closing day on Sunday, May 9.

With more snow in the forecast, I will write daily updates through at least early next week. Winter just won’t quit, so I won’t either:-)

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