"Weather Synopsis
Snow accumulations by midday Wednesday: Steamboat zone about 10", Cameron Pass 6-8", Berthoud Pass 3-5", Loveland Pass 2-5", Breckenridge area 7-9", Vail Pass area about 10", Aspen area about 6", Gunnison zone less than an inch.
Skies are drying quickly this afternoon. Clouds will hang out over the peaks through the night. Upper level flow turns zonal on Thursday. Warmer air moves in. Several short waves move through, keeping scattered clouds over the mountains. The Steamboat Zone and northern Front Range may be able to squeeze a few flakes out of one of the waves Thursday afternoon.
We are still on track for a weekend storm. A closed low off Baja will merge with a trough off the coast. That creates strong southwesterly flow over Colorado, and sweeps a storm into Colorado Friday afternoon. If it pans out, snow will spread statewide through Saturday night. Plan a mountain bike ride or schedule a BBQ for the weekend, wash your car, please do anything to encourage it to snow."
Gotta love the dudes at the CAIC !
