Anyone going this weekend?

It's ROUGH up there. We've been in the 50s the last couple of days. Supposed to get some REALLY heavy and wet snow this weekend. The SLR prediction is 11:1. Also supposed to be 20-25mph sustain winds Friday afternoon through Sunday morning with 40-45+ mph gusts.

We were going to drive up Saturday morning but decided against it when I saw the wind and weather report from Seth. Probably go next weekend instead

Flight and and accommodation is fixed and can't undo. Will just have to wait and see what it looks like Sunday and Monday

Sunday morning will be windy. Winds should die down Sunday afternoon. Monday will be cold but nice.

Just updated the forecast and it's not good if you're trying to get out this weekend. Now they're forecasting 25mph sustained winds today through Sunday night w gusts anywhere between 45-55mph. If those numbers hold, they will likely be in a delayed open for some chairs or a total close out.

The feels like temp today will be anywhere from -15 to -7 so make sure you're brining the Feb clothing options. Personally, 20-25mph winds, 40-50mph gusts, and feels like -15 is a big hell no for getting out there but if you must, be safe. That's frostbite in less than an hour for any exposed skin.

Red Rocks forecasting 100+ mph winds tonight. They actually cancelled the performance due to the forecasted winds.

Edit to add: the base elevation snow is supposed to be between 3,400 - 4,700 ft through Sunday. If that's correct, it's going to be VERY flat light w high potential for a grey out or white out if the cloud cover stays in the 70-90%+ range as currently expected.

Basically every one of the elements are working against you through Sunday at sunset. Monday should be much nicer.

We just got notice from Xcel that they're going to de-energize power lines from 3pm today til noon tomorrow for many counties including ours - Boulder.

Wasn't as apocalyptic as they said it would be. I had a great day on the hill. Sometimes you just gotta go….

Today was super nice here. Yesterday was straight ass.
