2008-11-11T12:47:00 Colorado Avalanche Information Center Spencer Logan http://avalanche.state.co.us/~beta/pub_bc_avo.php?zone_id=0 2008-11-11T12:47:00 2008-11-12T06:00:00 Mountain snow and clouds are slowly diminishing as the Nebraska closed low continues to move northeastward away from the state. Weak high pressure this evening will bring a break in cloudiness before they increase again after midnight as a short wave approaches from the northwest. Light snow is expected to start near daybreak over the northern and central mountains. Northwest aspects will be favored and daytime amounts will range from less than 2" over the central mountains up to 4" for the Flat Tops and the Park Range. Light snow continues overnight with similar accumulations expected by Thursday morning. Alpine winds will strengthen through the period and could be quite strong on Thursday near and east of the Continental Divide of the northern mountains. Persistent northwest flow is expected to keep periods of light snow going through Thursday, but less, if any, accumulations are expected. With the exception of a few flurries over the northern San Juan, the southern passes are expected to stay dry. 2008-11-11T18:00:00 2008-11-12T06:00:00 15 to 20 13 to 23 W Increasing 0 to 2 2008-11-12T06:00:00 2008-11-12T18:00:00 25 to 30 15 to 25 W Overcast 3 to 5 2008-11-12T18:00:00 2008-11-13T06:00:00 18 to 23 20 to 30 W Overcast 2 to 4
