Forecast

While the Winter Park side is closed, the Mary Jane side will be open ALAP (As Late As Possible).

  • Saturday will be a gorgeous day with sunny skies and a high temperature in the 40s.

  • Sunday will be mixed with dry weather in the morning and then cloudy and showery weather during the afternoon and evening, with perhaps a dusting to a few inches of snow.

  • Monday could be drier in the morning, then the next wave of snow will move across Colorado on Monday afternoon and evening. This wave should deliver 2-5 inches of accumulation.

  • Tuesday should start with the snow that fell on Monday evening, and after a potentially dry morning, the next wave of snow should fall from midday Tuesday through Tuesday night. Tuesday's last chair could offer some new snow.

  • Wednesday morning may offer the best conditions as the base could be somewhat soft due to snowfall on previous days, and the additional 4-8 inches of snow on Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night will create some powder on top of the softer base.

  • Total snowfall from Sunday afternoon to Wednesday will likely be in the 8-14 inch range.

  • Then, Thursday and beyond should offer typical spring conditions with highs in the 40s and afternoon showers on many days.
