Spring=Wind. Wind season is here, I know it is not everyone’s favorite but it is seasonal in SW Colorado for the next few months.
Not surprisingly, the storm has slowed down, delaying precipitation onset until later this evening and tonight. The good news is with that late arrival, we may see a couple of inches of accumulating snow down to 6,500 by Saturday morning.
There are a few Winter Weather Advisories that begin at 6 pm and last 24 hours. I am not bullish on the higher amounts.
The Purgatory area should be able to accumulate 5 to 9 inches by tomorrow afternoon. The 550 passes could pick up slightly more. Telluride should be in the 5 to 9 range as well. Wolf Creek should end up with 8 to 12 inches all said and done.
Up to 2 inches of snow before melting could fall at or above 6,500 feet. 2 to 4 inches below 7,800 with 3 to 5 inches above 7,800 feet.
