Long-range Snow Forecast 2024-2025

Home » Colorado Ski Resort News » Long-range Snow Forecast 2024-2025

October 10, 2024 by Alex McGregor

As the days grow shorter and fall arrives, skiers and riders eagerly anticipate the upcoming 2024-2025 winter ski season. With the promise of fresh powder and thrilling slopes, it’s essential to stay informed about the long-range winter forecast for the Colorado mountains.

The Expert

Meteorologist Chris Tomer recently shared his insights into the upcoming winter season, providing a comprehensive forecast for North America. In his analysis, he mentioned that the NOAA has issued a La Niña Watch, anticipating its development in the fall and continuation through the Northern Hemisphere winter. Tomer mentioned that he expects this winter to be a “La Niña Lite,” with a weaker La Niña pattern that may bring about an abnormally warm and dry fall for most of the U.S. and Canada. However, the West Coast, especially the Pacific Northwest, could experience exceptions to this trend.

In terms of snowfall predictions, Tomer emphasized that La Niña historically favors the northern states out West. He suggested that the Pacific Northwest, British Columbia, Western Montana, Western Wyoming, Idaho, Northern California, and parts of Northern Utah and Northwest Colorado could potentially receive above-normal snowfall. Specifically for Colorado, the forecast favors Northwest Colorado, including popular ski destinations such as Steamboat and Vail, and possibly Aspen.

Looking at ski resorts, Tomer indicated that the winter storm track is likely to benefit ski areas in the Pacific Northwest, Canada, and the northern tier states. For Colorado, resorts in the northwest part of the state are expected to fare well, potentially receiving a healthy amount of snowfall.

In summary

The 2024-2025 ski season snow forecast for the Colorado mountains leans towards a potential La Niña weather pattern, with the possibility of above-normal snowfall in the northern regions. As the ski season approaches, it will be important for enthusiasts and visitors to keep an eye on weather updates to plan their trips accordingly.

For the latest weather updates and to stay informed about the approaching ski season, you can follow OnTheSnow and other reliable sources for trusted forecasts.

Frank was an awesome driver – he drove exceptionally well and at the same time kept us entertained with jokes, stories and smack talking. Everyone is the shuttle was having a blast with this dude. He really made the ride at the end of a long travel day a fun experience.

Frank is a great driver, very friendly and chatty and made the end of our trip a happy time rather than a sad ride to the airport and back to reality.

From now on, these guys are my new shuttle service when travel around Colorado. We had a mishap with our luggage while on our way to Breckenridge.  When we realized it, United Airlines called me and explained to me that I had to go back to the airport. Scott, from Summit immediately asked me if he could speak to the rep.

Long story short, Scott tried to explain to the rep that they can go back to the airport and pick up our luggage…they’ve done it before for customers in the past.  Unfortunately, United couldn’t give us a straight answer, so my friend and I had to make the 2 hour drive back to Denver.

Either way, Summit and Scott were amazing. They gave us a great rate to go back to the airport and back to Breckenridge.

Go with Summit if you plan to make trips around Colorado. I highly recommend them.

I want to thank you for your excellent services yesterday in particularly lousy weather. Your team called me on Saturday to alert me to impending weather concerns and the fact that I might have troubles making my flight home Sunday. The dispatcher put me on an earlier than planned shuttle and got me to the airport on time. The trip from FTC to DIA took four hours and your driver Dave did a nice job. I will use your service again and I will recommended it to others. The bottled water was appreciated as well.

The exceptional personal service provided by everyone in your company from the online chat, phone calls with customer service agent, drivers and representative at the airport, arriving for pick up at the EXACT time, sending text message reminders… Your company excels at everything a customer wants and needs. The bottom line is that you provide a personal experience, in the future we will only use your company.

Fast, comfortable and the driver was wonderful. I left my wallet in the van by accident and he brought it to my condo immediately without me even calling.
