Those are the days that the other side of the divide is usually getting that lovely NW flow hammering. That big, low cloud over the divide visible from town, and windy down in the foothills/Front Range = checking the snow report for tomorrow...Quote:

oh we're definitely getting it up here. driving from frisco to breck, lots of people stopping in the middle of the road because of wind drifts causing zero visibility.Quote:

(goes with my travel theory relating to snow fall levels)
some wind on the valley floor today but not a ton
Drove out to Steamboat today from Summit County. 3+ feet in the last 2 days and it's been snowing all day and continuing now at 10:30pm. Should be another 12" by tomorrow morning. Stoked to be here. First powder day post ACL surgery. I'll ski as long as I can.
No wind just snow
Nice surprise this am, 11 reported at Vail. Wonder how much of that was overnight?

looks like winter has arrived, better late then never
normally get one of these a year where Vail gets a good # but very little at the Beav. Just a skiff to an inch on the valley floor. Go get it boys and girls.
Have fun out there!!
stoked for all of you in steamboat... the way you guys are set up right now is as good as it gets
Worthless without pics...so here is one:Quote:

Anyone looking at the storm for Saturday-Sunday yet? It's all I can put on my radar because of work right now.
^^^ already looking for a babysitter
Some potential for sure but looks like Steamboat will get the bulk of the storm once again.

I keep hoping, but Loveland continues to only squeeze and inch or two out of these storms. Maybe tonight into tomorrow will be kinder to the Love. I'll be up there tomorrow to get after whatever I may find.
I am in the same spot as you. The Love hasn't gotten any love lately. Wish I could have been in Steamboat, but I couldn't swing it after a Wolf Creek trip last week. I'll be at Loveland tomorrow for deeper or for naught.Quote:

CAIC has a pretty bullish forecast of 5-10" for tonight.
That's just what I wanted to hear. Couldn't get out there today, but tomorrow should be really nice with some more on top of that (anti-jinx).Quote:
