As of November 1st, 2018, Colorado’s statewide snowpack is 138% of average. It’s looking like this snowpack will improve over the weekend, as a powerful winter storm is headed to the state. While it’s too early in this season for these numbers to mean much, it’s still a great sign for the winter ahead in Colorado.

 “Preliminary snowpack data as of November 1st. It’s way too early in the season for these         numbers to carry any weight but at least we’re off to a good start.”
