Aspen official report: 6″ of new snow overnight, 6″ in the past 48 hours, and 23″ in the past week.
Aspen Times field report: Stormy up top this morning, with really nice, soft snow. SkiCo reported no snow on Aspen Mountain this morning, but there are areas with at least 6″. Most have a nice 1-2″ covering, with very few folks to carve it up. Things are a bit sketch down below, where the new snow has quickly been pushed into slush piles, along with the scraped-off crust layer below.
Liftline status: It’s a Monday, so you’ve got your pick of empty buckets and chairs.
Snowcast: A 20 percent chance of snow showers before 5pm. Partly sunny, with a high near 41. Northwest wind around 10 mph.
Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around 20. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming southwest after midnight.
Tuesday: Sunny, with a high near 55. South southwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming west northwest in the afternoon.
Tuesday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 27. West wind around 5 mph becoming south southwest after midnight.
Wednesday: Sunny, with a high near 59. Southwest wind 5 to 15 mph.
Warming trend should continue through the week, with another weekend storm predicted for Friday and Saturday.
