Colorado 2016-17 Colorado Weather

The word "storm" has been spoken. I still need Sept turns this weekend.

Here's to "storm" + "St. Mary's" = "good" Sept turns.

Pretty incredible views on the Aspen cams this morning with the fresh snow and color changes. Looks like more snow is coming in too...

Looks like the first "winter" storm of the season is on the way for CO. Stoke time!

We had some gorgeous weather out in Carbondale this week! Snowy peaks, fall colors, and warm temps down in the valley!!

A Basin snow making has begun, all day: (Al's blog)

All Day Long[/paste:font]

We have had a phenomenal first day of snowmaking. The snowmakers fired up the system and ran at full capacity for most of the evening. The temps stayed cool enough to keep going through the day. The evening forecast for tonight looks very good. In fact, the forecast for several days looks very good. Whenever we can make snow through the day, we are happy.

If everything went perfectly, cold temps and plenty of water, we can get the mountain open in less than a week. Typically, it does not go perfectly. We mix in some warm, non-snowmaking weather and it takes a little longer. We will see how it plays out the next week or two.

Great start.

For some reason 7 October comes to mind. But I'll have to check that.

I think it's the 9th, not 7th. Probably won't beat it.

I am going to take a guess and say they will open October 21.... I saw a sign this morning in my cheerios.....
