We’ll be under a ridge of high pressure until next week Tuesday. This weekend will be mostly sunny, highs in the upper 30s or lower 40s.
Next week there looks to be a shot of snow on Tuesday to Thursday. Between the two, here are the model forecasts:
4” – Canadian and European Models
3” – American Model
Retrospective Discussion:
The three models I checked for Tuesday night each had a 1/2” of snow, but 2” of snow fell. We’ll take it!
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 European Model are the European (ECMWF IFS) Model grid including Brainerd Lake. 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 Icon and UKMet Models are to the 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.
