Colorado snowpack is getting another much-needed boost this weekend.
Snow will gradually develop over the mountains overnight tonight and persist through the first half of Saturday. The mountains could see 5 to 10 inches from this system.
The statewide snowpack is currently sitting at 90 percent of average for mid-November. Southwest Colorado is faring much better where the snowpack is 190 percent of average.
Several ski areas are open—A Basin, Keystone, Loveland, and Wolf Creek are open, Breckenridge is opening today. Monarch Mountain is scheduled to open next Friday.
