Wednesday Stormday

Summary

Not much snow fell on Tuesday, then the storm moved closer on Tuesday night and we should see snow for most of the day on Wednesday.

Update

Tuesday and Tuesday evening were relatively quiet with just light snow showers. Then on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, the storm moved closer and the mid-mountain snow stake showed 1 inch of new snow at 5:00 am.

With the storm moving over Colorado on Wednesday, we should see an additional 3-7 inches of accumulation throughout the day on Wednesday. Wind gusts will be strong at the upper mountain during the afternoon which could impact lift operations and could make the snow quality denser and surfy.

Wednesday Night & Thursday is when we should see the storm wind down, but snow showers may continue at times, and snow conditions on Thursday could stay soft.

Thursday night & Friday could bring a lull in the storm with anything from partly sunny skies to continued snow showers and light accumulations.

Friday night into Saturday morning will bring another round of snowfall with 2-5 inches possible by Saturday morning and this would make Saturday a low-to-moderate powder day.

Further into the future, we will likely see a few inches of snow on Sunday night into Monday, then dry weather from Monday to Wednesday, and then another storm is likely between Thursday, March 30, and Sunday, April 2.
