By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 29 days ago March 29, 2024

Stormy through Monday

Summary

We saw snow on Thursday night, snow will continue through Friday night, we'll see drier weather on Saturday, and then more snow will fall on Sunday into Monday.

Update

Thursday

Thursday was dry, partly sunny, breezy, and dry.

Thursday Night

The storm arrived around midnight and by Friday morning at sunrise, 5 inches fell at mid-mountain with 7 inches at the summit.

Friday to Monday Night

We will see additional snow from Friday through Monday night with 10+ inches of accumulation.

On Friday and Friday night, we could see another 3-6+ inches with powder throughout the day on Friday and potentially on Saturday morning as well. With abundant moisture, snow totals may be higher than expected. Temperatures will be in the 20s on Friday.

On Saturday, we may see a break in the snow during the day with a high temperature in the low 30s.

Then from Saturday night to Monday, additional rounds of snow could bring 3-6+ inches of accumulation, and the best chances for powder will be on Sunday and also on Monday.

Longer Range

On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday (April 2-4), we will see dry, mostly sunny, and warm weather with high temperatures in the 30s to low 40s.

Then from Friday, April 5 to Sunday, April 7, the next storm could bring snow and the potential for a day or two of powder.

My next update will be Saturday morning.
