With snow still melting around the Front Range following a massive storm that dropped more than three feet of powder in some parts of the state over a multi-day period, some forecasters are indicating that another round of fresh flakes is on the way.

According to the National Weather Service, a light dusting is set to hit much of western Colorado through Wednesday, dropping a few inches on most peaks with up to 12 inches possible in a small area southwest of Aspen. That said, what’s more notable is a storm that’s about a week away.

Joel Gratz of OpenSnow indicates that a “complicated weather pattern may deliver snow starting on or around Sunday, November 17” in his most recent Daily Snow report. (Find some of Gratz’ resort-by-resort predictions for this storm by purchasing the All-Access Daily Snow pass).

While most forecast reports published elsewhere online seem to indicate that expected totals are a bit up in the air for this next round of big snow, the Mountain-Forecast.com report does provide some decent insight into what might happen.

Mountain-Forecast.com’s outlook for Pikes Peak indicates that a good chunk of this snow should favor the southern Front Range, with about 23 inches of snow expected on this mountain between Monday and Tuesday of next week. Meanwhile, their report for Longs Peak shows a bit less along the Northern Front Range, with about eight inches expected during the same period on this high point of Rocky Mountain National Park.

It’s also worth noting that Mountain-Forecast.com shows even less snow in the state’s western and southwest regions, with mountains like Uncompahgre and Wetterhorn expected to only get a couple inches next week.

These reports are still a long way out and a lot is subject to change between now and when this potential storm lands. That said, it’s looking like southern Colorado could end up being favored once again at this time.
