Winter Park Daily Snow

By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 3 years ago March 16, 2022
Snow returns
Summary
Tuesday felt like spring, and now on Wednesday, snow is back in the forecast.
Update
Tuesday was a warm, spring day with sunny skies and high temperatures in the upper 30s to mid-40s.
Now on Wednesday morning, the snow stake shows zero snow, but that will change soon enough.
During this storm, our best chance for snow will be from Wednesday afternoon through Thursday afternoon. We could see anything between 4-10+ inches. If the snow showers develop as expected, we could have powder for Thursday morning's first chair, with additional snow showers with likely a refresh on Thursday afternoon. On non-groomed slopes, the base could be crusty under this new snow.
Friday and Saturday will be mostly dry with just an outside chance for a snow shower. High temperatures will be in the upper 20s to low 30s.
From Sunday through Tuesday, a strong storm will track just to the south of Colorado. This can be a very good storm track for big snow here at Winter Park, so I am keeping my eye on the possibility for powder days on Monday and/or Tuesday. Stay tuned...
Thanks for reading and please check back each morning for daily updates!
