Radar around Arapahoe Basin
Tap a nearby resort to open its forecast.
Drag to pan; use + and − or pinch to zoom (click the map first to zoom with the scroll wheel). Radar: NOAA/NWS MRMS. Terrain: USGS The National Map. Colors show how heavy the precipitation is, not whether it’s rain or snow. Mountains block radar beams, so snow over high terrain can be heavier than it looks here.

Estimated snowfall is a multi-model reconciled forecast, converted from liquid equivalent with a snow-to-liquid ratio. Past-week snowfall is observed at the nearest SNOTEL station (not necessarily on the mountain); resorts outside SNOTEL coverage show no past-week data. Wind-hold probability is a generic estimate from forecast gusts, not this resort’s own lift policy. Always check the resort’s snow report and your local avalanche center before you go.
