Today’s Loveland snow report: Loveland Ski Area received 0 inches of new snow overnight, keeping the base depth at 28 inches.
Conditions on the mountain are hard-packed and groomed, with icy spots likely, especially in wind-exposed areas. With overnight temperatures dipping to 19.8°F, expect fast, firm runs early in the day that may soften slightly with afternoon sun.
The snowpack remains well below average, sitting at 43% under normal depth, and only 0.45 inches of new snow is anticipated over the next 72 hours. While the mountain remains open, terrain offerings are limited and some areas may be closed or less enjoyable due to thin coverage. If you're itching to carve some turns, go early for the best surface conditions—but powder hounds may want to wait for a bigger storm.
