Weather and Snow
Current Conditions: Temperatures continue to gradually cool off. Highs on Monday were in the low 30s and overnight lows were in the low teens to low 20s. Wind has been light and variable.
Mountain Weather: High temperatures today will get into the upper 20s to low 30s with light and variable wind and mostly clear skies. Weather models are portraying a period of wetter weather ahead. It looks like we could see some minor disturbances Thursday and Saturday that might bring a trace to a few inches each. Models continue to portray a larger storm starting the 7th with more storms following. It is still too far out to hang my hat on that.
