Bluebird powder day, with more on the way

 TL;DR: Bluebird says for the weekend with another storm moving through next week. 


Nowcast:

It is a spectacular bluebird day today. With around a foot of new snow and colder temperatures, the snow quality should be great today. It is colder than it was yesterday with highs in the teens and low 20s. There wont be a cloud in the sky today. If you are planning on going out remember to ring some sunscreen.

Short Term:

It should remain clear through the weekend with temps slowly rising but still only reaching the mid 20s. There could be accouple low level clouds that settle into the canyons, but there will be no precipitation associated with them. The snow that fell yesterday should stick around through this weekend, but there might be a bit of crust that forms due to solar radiation and low temperatures.




Long Term:

    It looks like there is another system that will role through early next week. There is a large low pressure system that will be moving across the wester US starting Monday. It looks like the brunt of the storm will hit midday Tuesday and carry through into Wednesday. Curranty, the NAEFS is predicting around 30 in from Monday to Wednesday, but it might be a little optimistic due to the uncertainty of the models.
