Winter Park Daily Snow

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

New snow on Monday morning

Summary

Sunday was mostly dry, then 1-2 inches of snow fell from Sunday afternoon through Sunday evening.

Update

Sunday

Sunday was mostly dry, and then snow showers finally arrived during Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. These showers delivered 1-2 inches of snow at mid-mountain.

Monday

The 1-2 inches of snow will be untouched on Monday morning and should ride nicely on smoother and/or groomed surfaces. Otherwise, Monday's weather will be partly cloudy with a high temperature in the 20s.

During the midday, afternoon, and evening, snow showers will pop up, these showers could be intense closer to the continental divide and may lead to a couple of inches of accumulation. There is some higher-end potential and also a lot of uncertainty, so we'll see how it goes and maybe there will be fresh snow to enjoy on Tuesday morning.

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

From Tuesday to Friday, we'll see dry weather and sunny skies. The high temperature on Tuesday will be in the 30s, and highs from Wednesday to Friday will reach into the 40s. Expect spring conditions for all four days with crunchy snow in the morning, a transition to corn/soft snow by midday, and some slush by the afternoon.

Longer Range

The next storm will bring snow from Saturday, April 6, to Sunday, April 7. The storm will be strong, but moisture will be limited, so I am keeping my expectation for snowfall on the moderate side.

After this weekend's storm, we may see more snow around April 9-10 and again around April 13-15, with warmer and drier weather between these systems.

My next update will be Tuesday morning.

Thanks for reading!
