This week looks to be warm and mostly sunny, with highs potentially hitting or exceeding 50 on Wednesday. Yikes.
The weather pattern looks to change around Saturday. The Canadian Model is calling for a few weak storms from Saturday to Monday, with 5” total. The American Model is calling for one snowfall on Saturday evening of 3”. Obviously, in my end of week forecast, I’ll dive into more details when the models have a better sense of our likely weather.
Retrospective Discussion:
Eldora picked up around 7” over the weekend. All snow helps!
Cheers.

Geeky Notes:
References to the American Model are to the American (GFS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake with an average elevation of 9,439’. References to the Canadian Model are the Canadian (GDPS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake with an average elevation of 10,253’. References to the WRF Model are the CAIC WRF Hi-Res Model point forecast for Eldora Ski Area with an elevation of 9,189’. References to the European Model are to the European (ECMWF) Model on a point with my cursor at my best estimate of Eldora Ski Area. For big picture overviews, I tend to rely on the American Model, not because I think it is the most accurate, but because (i) it is free and (ii) I like its interface.
