Nice snow in Colorado!
« on: April 17, 2015, 12:04:28 PM »
Snow total of 13" so far and it is still snowing  [snow]  My CoCoRAHS gauge overflowed with snow over night.  I have not yet done the precipitation snow board measurement.  Still a few hours to wait.  Power has been going off/on all night (why I am up so early- bedroom lights come on when the power comes back on  [banghead]).  I'll take a few snow pictures for you folks in grips of summer.

Just measured everything so far:

16.4" of snow with 1.42" of water content.  Snow in the forecast through Monday with dimensioning returns today forward.

Our dogs just looked at the snow on the deck and said "You gotta be kiddy.  Were not going out in that"   [biggrin]

Dear HantaYo and WeatherCat drought watchers . . . .

Snow total of 13" so far and it is still snowing  [snow] 

. . . . . .

16.4" of snow with 1.42" of water content.  Snow in the forecast through Monday with dimensioning returns today forward.

Congratulations on all the wet stuff.  That is enough precipitation to provide some relief for the wild vegetation.

Cheers, Edouard  [cheers1]

We got almost a foot of snow out of that same storm before it crossed the Rockies. Very welcome stuff.

Well we ended up with 19.4" of snow and 1.72" of very precious water.  Unfortunately some of the drought stricken areas of the state did not receive significant precipitation.

I decided to snow blow the roads - I just hate mud.  Likely it will melt by early next week.

Great pictures! I enjoy looking at pictures of snow. Just as glad that it isn't in my backyard.
