Snowfall Totals

Some decent snowfall totals being reported from around the region... Here are a select few from the NWS (in inches):
Eldorado Springs: 11.6
Roxborough Park: 10.0
SSE Bennett: 8.3
Westminster: 7.0
Castle Pines: 6.9
Denver International Airport: 6.5
E Highlands Ranch: 6.3
Longmont: 3

Chilly temperatures will be around for the next several days. Overnight lows will dip below zero tonight in most locations. In fact, many mountain locations could see temps as low as 30 degrees below zero! After Tuesday temperatures will moderate a bit before our next system arrives for the weekend. Still too much uncertainty surrounding it to make any major changes to the going forecast. For now expect cooler temps and a slight chance of snow.

Snowstorm comes to an end...

But not before dropping quite a bit of snow up and down the the front range. After coming in with a roar last night, with snowfall rates in excess of 2 inches an hour, thunder, and wind... the snow continued lightly through the night. This morning there are just a few lingering snow showers, along with sloppy roads and closed schools and businesses. Even with temperatures below freezing, the snow is melting nearly as fast as it fell. By noon most of the streets will likely be completely melted off. Here are a few photos from this latest storm, I have also posted some of the impressive snow totals on the right.

Powerful Spring Storm Winds Down

Well, let the melt begin! And it will in a big way tomorrow. After several days of snow and rain the storm is showing signs of letting up. Rain and snow showers will likely continue through the afternoon and into the evening, but they will more isolated in nature. By tomorrow we should be pushing 50 degrees again... and into the 70s next week! (click to enlarge photos).

*Storm Totals*

This was an impressive storm both in terms of precipitation totals and snowfall totals. As far as precip is concerned, here in Denver we picked up anywhere between 2.1 and 3 inches of water. Some foothill locations were well over 4 inches. In one storm many of us logged more precip than we have all year.
Now for some of the snow totals (inches):
Pinecliffe (west of Boulder): 51
Black Hawk: 36
Eldorado Springs: 34
Evergreen: 29.6 (23 of these inches fell within 24 hours)
Castle Rock: 20
Parker: 16.3
Greenwood Village: 14
NW Denver: 10.5
Central Denver: 5.5

These totals are likely to change as updates come in throughout the day.
