Colorado Mountains to See Another Big Winter Storm
What's the saying? Oh yeah, if you don't like the weather in Colorado, just wait five minutes.
I was kinda getting used to the warmer weather and dusting off the golf clubs. Lucky for me, this storm should just blow in and blow its way out.

The biggest impact will be in the southwest San Juan Mountains affecting Telluride, and the surrounding areas. Great news for the powder hounds. We're talking 8 to 14 inches of phreshies.
The Grand Mesa near Grand Junction, Colo. could also see some decent snow levels for the adventurous looking to get those last few turns in before winter sports are put on hiatus.
Should Western Coloradans Be Concerned with Other Winter Weather?
Besides snow impacting travel and making some of the higher country highways greasy, there's potential for high winds.
High elevations could see wind gusts of 50 MPH or more. Hold onto your hats, it's gonna get blowy.
In the valleys, we could see gusts from 35 to 45 MPH. We hope your trampolines are tied down unless you want to donate them to your neighbor.
Obviously, it's Colorado and all of this could happen or none of it. This could also be the last winter storm, or we could see a few more through June. If there's one thing that's guaranteed, it's Colorado's weather is ever-changing.
