Mountain Weather for 11,000ft

CB Avalanche CenterWeather

Date: 03/13/2019

To our south is the low-pressure system that has been mentioned for several days now; it will continue to slowly move eastward as a trough moves down from the northwest. The two will combine to form one strange storm in eastern Colorado and Kansas. Weather geeks are having a field day with this setup. For today you can expect moderate to heavy snowfall with accumulations ranging from 8″ to 12″. Strong NW winds will be associated with this system and will blow the new snow around. Temperatures will drop throughout the day and will be below average by tomorrow morning. Skies will begin to clear on Thursday and dry weather will set in through the weekend.
