13 days of snow
« on: March 05, 2015, 03:30:57 AM »
13 straight days of snow in Colorado ended today  [woohoo]  Total snow amount of 32".  I have never seen such a long streak of snow or precipitation.  We could of been totally buried- I think I am glad some of the heavy snows ended up elsewhere.

Dear HantaYo, Blick, and WeatherCat drought watchers,

13 straight days of snow in Colorado ended today  [woohoo]  Total snow amount of 32". 

We got 10 inches next door in Utah, biggest storm of the season.

Okay, so now you guys have gotten some drought relief, could you share a bit of that moisture? - Please!!

For a while it appeared that we would get some rain here in California next week, but the models are now trending drier.

*Heavy sigh* . . . .

Edouard, I am hoping the wet period continues and extends into California.    We have to keep those redwoods well watered.  It is great seeing Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and southern Colorado in the storm track.    Seems like the SW states have been in drought since around 2009.  I just hope the climate warming models are not correct for our region but it appears  this could just be the start of a new normal for our region.  Hang in there.   On a side note, the Elk Mountains in Colorado from December to February were significantly below normal.  So the wet weather is still missing areas on a more local scale.  They finally did receive some snow this past week though I got more at my house.  Keep in mind the Elk Mountains are one of the wetter mountains ranges in the state.
