Friday delivered 6 inches of snow with 3 additional inches on Friday night, bringing our Thursday + Friday storm total to about 16 inches at mid-mountain.

Saturday

Conditions will be soft and fun with temperatures in the 20s. Most of the day will be dry as we'll be in between storms. 

Sunday & Sunday Night

This next storm will bring 5-10 inches of snow between Sunday morning and Sunday night. The snow will be fluffier than the current storm and the powder should get deeper during the day on Sunday with fun freshies (or at least fun leftovers) on Monday morning.

Monday Morning

This period should be dry or bring just light snow.

Monday Midday – Tuesday Afternoon

We should see another 5-10 inches of snow during this time, and thanks to colder temperatures, the new snow should be fluffy. Tuesday morning should offer good powder, with maybe refills during the first half of the day.

Wednesday & Thursday

I have low confidence in this forecast. I think most of this time will be on the drier side, but I can't guarantee that.

Friday, December 31 – Saturday, January 1

There is a decent chance for one more storm during this time, but right now I am uncertain if this storm will hit all of Colorado or will track too far to the south for a lot of snow for us.

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