People are always asking us what the weather is going to be like for the upcoming winter. Forecasting for Summit County is a challenge. Results are in from the major meteorologists giving their predictions for what kind of winter we can expect. The problem is, no one agrees.
The Colorado mountains are on the edge between “normal” and “above normal” on most of the charts. However, many of the predictions are either for Denver, and our weather is quite different, or they are for the ski areas above 10,000 feet – again quite a bit different from what you can expect on your driveway. One thing we know, at 9000+ feet we will get snow.
Our personal prediction, based on experience and all available data, is that we will have about an average season, or slightly above average – similar to last year. October so far is turning out much wetter and cooler than usual.
When it comes down to it, we look out the window, then we know what the weather is doing! You can be assured that we have a monitoring system in place so that we will be out there plowing whenever we’re needed. For the past 16 years we have built a reputation as one of the most reliable snow plowing companies in Summit County, and we’re committed to maintaining that high level of service for our customers.
Looking forward to a great winter,
Steve
