Winter Park Daily Snow

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

Snow in 10 days?

Summary

We'll stay dry for the next week, then snow might return about 8-10 days from now.

Update

On Saturday morning, it was cold enough for the overnight snowmaking to continue for a few hours after sunrise. The additional snowmaking may help to open limited additional terrain on the lower mountain.

We could use a couple of significant storms (12+ inches) to open up a lot more terrain, but that won't happen during the next seven days. 

From Sunday, November 28 through Saturday, December 4, each day will be dry with partly to mostly sunny skies. Temperatures will be in the upper 30s to mid-40s during the day and in the mid-20s at night, which will be cold enough for some snowmaking. Thanks to the snowmaking, there could be limited additional terrain that opens during the next week.

Our glimmer of hope for natural snow will arrive during the December 5-7 timeframe. The longer-range models are showing a weaker storm around December 5 and a potentially stronger storm around December 7. These storms are still 8-10 days away and not all versions of all models show these systems, so snowfall is far from a lock. But at least there's some hope in the longer-range forecast.

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