OpenSnow’s Joel Gratz is calling for 3 more storms to hit Colorado this week and next:

“The next storm will be weak and should bring only light snow on Thursday and Friday. A stronger and colder storm will then affect Colorado between Sunday and next Wednesday (Dec 7), with a third storm likely during the weekend of December 10th.” – Joel Gratz/OpenSnow.com
