Storm Total

From Saturday through Sunday night, Winter Park picked up 3-4 inches of snow, with about 1 inch on Sunday night.

This was less snow than I expected, but it was enough to keep conditions soft and fun.

Monday

While the weekend storm is long gone, moisture is lingering and there could be a few snow showers roaming around with light accumulation. The snow surface should still be soft from Sunday's snow and the few inches that accumulated on Sunday night. The temperature will be in the teens.

Tuesday

A storm will pass by on Monday night and Tuesday, but most/all of the snow should stay east and south of the mountain, and the high temperature will stay in the teens.

Wednesday

Wednesday will be dry and mostly sunny with a high temperature in the teens.

Thursday

Thursday may bring light snow, but the storm will only brush by Colorado and I expect little accumulation. The temperature will be in the teens.

Friday

Friday should be dry and partly sunny with a high temperature in the teens.

This Weekend

During the weekend of January 11-12, the next storm should bring snow with moderate accumulations (2-6 inches?) and potentially some powder on Saturday and/or Sunday.

Longer Range

Early next week, from about January 13-16, Colorado will be on the edge of the storm track and the weather should be dry. Then around or after January 17, the weather pattern could become stormier with more snow.
