Winter Park Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 7 months ago April 10, 2024
Cloudy on Wednesday, then sunny through the weekend
Summary
Light snow fell on Tuesday night, and clouds and snow showers will continue on Wednesday. Then Thursday through Sunday will be sunny and warm, and next week will transition to cooler and snowier weather.
Update
Tuesday
Tuesday was mostly sunny and warm with a high temperature in the 30s. Clouds increased later in the day ahead of Tuesday night's storm.
Tuesday Night
On Tuesday night, snow showers delivered a dusting of accumulation at mid-mountain, and this new snow could feel a bit soft on top of any runs groomed early on Tuesday night.
Wednesday
Wednesday's weather will be mostly cloudy with snow showers and a high temperature in the upper 20s.
This lingering moisture is due to a storm tracking just to the northeast of Colorado.
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
Thursday through Sunday will be sunny and warm with afternoon high temperatures in the 40s. Snow conditions will be typical of spring - crunchy in the morning, soft during the late morning and midday, and slushy later in the afternoon.
Stormy Next Week
From Monday, April 15 through Friday, April 19, we will have multiple chances for snow along with colder temperatures. The first storm could arrive early in the week, with a second, colder storm later in the week. While the storms are too far away for us to talk about the details of the forecast, there is a chance that there will be a powder day (or two), especially during the middle or end of the week. Stay tuned.
My next update will be Thursday morning.
Thanks for reading!
