"Snow develops Thursday evening, peaks overnight, and tapers Friday morning into midday. Snow levels during active precipitation generally hold from near 0 to about 1,800 feet, so upper-mountain terrain stays mostly snow while some lower bases flirt with mixed periods. Snow quality should be mostly moderate/fair with SLRs around 10-15, with denser 8-10 pockets where mixing intrudes."
"Friday night through Tuesday trends warmer and less snowy, with guidance converging on a springlike stretch and stronger wind impacts. After the Friday wave, lingering drizzle or freezing drizzle is possible early Saturday before most elevations push well above freezing Saturday afternoon and stay mild into early next week."
"The more consistent ski impact is wind, with many ridge forecasts in the 25-40 mph range and gusts commonly 45-70 mph Saturday into Sunday, plus occasional higher outliers. Monday and Tuesday should bring mostly soft spring surfaces by afternoon and fewer natural refreshes, with only spotty light precipitation."
A weak snow system develops Thursday evening, peaks overnight, and tapers Friday morning, with snow levels holding near 0 to 1,800 feet. Upper-mountain terrain receives mostly snow while lower bases may experience mixed precipitation. Snow quality is moderate to fair with snow-to-liquid ratios around 10-15. Most mountains receive 0-2 inches, while the southern Green pocket gets closer to 3-4 inches. Following this system, Friday night through Tuesday brings warmer, springlike conditions with strong winds of 25-40 mph and gusts reaching 45-70 mph Saturday into Sunday. Additional snowfall during this period is minimal at 0-1 inch with dense snow. Monday and Tuesday feature soft spring surfaces with limited natural refreshes.
