Wednesday was fun with soft snow from the previous day's storm. We also saw about 1 inch of new snow on Wednesday night.

Now on Thursday, we'll see continued light snow as the final wave of energy associated with this week's storm moves across Colorado. We could see just a few inches of snow on Thursday into Thursday evening. The cold temperatures and low moisture will likely keep snowfall limited.

On Friday, expect cloudy weather and very cold temperatures with a high of around 0°F.

On Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday expect dry weather and a decent amount of sunshine, and temperatures will be warmer with highs in the teens and low 20s.

Then starting around Wednesday, December 21st, a new weather pattern will develop with frequent storms sideswiping northern Colorado. If this pattern sets up just right, we could see snow every other day or so with really fun conditions. I'll keep you updated as the details of this new pattern come together.

Thanks for reading!
