Snow

[Ryan]

We got 6” (measured with a tape) in 4 hours as of 7:00 tonight and it’s supposed to snow all night here in Evergreen, Co. Bring it on. Sq

And it feels more like a March storm than late December. Be careful shoveling.

And two more waves coming in next five days. Long way to go to May, but hard not to get excited.

Not to bad in Utah but need a lot more.

We are at our place in Silverthorne for the week. It has been so unseasonably warm up here. It feels like spring! The snow has been melting a lot. I hope this storm starts to cool things down a bit. Although I’m still grateful for the moisture!

Getting better every week.

Here in Longmont, I have 7 inches (measured). Snow over and sunshine now.

It rained in Jackson, WY and Teton Valley ID on Tuesday. Broke my snowblower trying to clean up my driveway in Victor!!

Rained before our snow as well. Forecast was for 3”-6”. We got over 12”.

It was a pain clearing the driveway. My Apple Watch said I walked 1.25 miles. Made me appreciate my new snow blower. I’d buy it again in a heart beat.

Just finished a nice mountain run. It’s finally cooled off up here in Silverthorne. 16 degrees, right now and on its way to the single digits. It seems to be snowing on and off all over the place (ski resorts) with a pretty solid forecast over the next few days.

Chaco Canyon received about an inch of rain followed six inches of snow over the last two days. We almost didn’t get out of there, that clay when it gets wet is a nightmare.

Yes, I did and thats what saved us, all 14,000 lbs. There was an idiot with a Guy Fawkes goatee from California that made a running start at one patch in front of us. He did three doughnuts and slide in the ditch. The pictures below show the squall when it was about to hit us. It had 40-50 mph winds and no visibility. I figured he knew what he was doing trying to make it out there two hours before dark. I had the wife and kid, so he was on his own. I know that these storms can be deadly, but there is nothing more beautiful than a storm in the desert.

You're right. That's not pretty! I hope that doesn't upset the snow gods!

 

[flowerbug]

wow the storm going through California really bumped up the inflow rate into ORO (over 50,000cfs at some points).

snow pack is doing great for both CA and CO! had to check Utah:

Oh My God, I was eating breakfast when I did that. Sq

Probably a foot last night and this morning in summit. We are doing very well going into a typically very dry month.

You could have warned us!

I never clicked it. I’ll never know what I’m missing and don’t want to. Usually I’m the one posting about snow, and when I do it doesn’t amount to much. So I’ve learned to not be the jinx.

I just drove from salt lake airport back to green river. The interstate closed early in the morning but I hit it perfectly. Raining lake crazy in the salt lake valley, snowing at park city and pretty dry through Wyoming. Hopefully it hits tonight!
