The Kiowa Vortex Generator strikes again.

We got 0.03" rain.

Temp rose 10 degrees in the last hour and dewpoints now up to the upper 50s... let's go!

Front Range north of COS is in a Slight Risk for this afternoon, mostly for hail with 1" hail east of I-25. Time to drag the pots under the patio roof...

I think I'm safe now in declaring 34.8" as the 2025-6 snow total at my house. Could be a slight underestimate but within an inch or so. About the 3rd least in our 16 winters.

We've had just fringes of things here, no hail and 0.11" rain since Monday.

Kind of strange, because when you look at the monthly precip so far, DEN has 0.78 and Centennial 1.00 inches, considerably less than this analysis.

It's kind of funny that this "warm season" thread is all about snow, and the "cold season" thread was mostly about heat and dryness. Go figure!

5.3" here total, was in a bit of a hole from mid evening through about 6 AM, but not complaining- no damage to trees and minimal to shrubs. Not nearly as much as 2022 where the chain saws were busy in the neighborhood for several days. I'll take it.

A very saturated 1.8" at 11 PM here. Rates, indeed! Need some.

Changed here at 5 PM sharp, was real heavy for an hour, now much lighter. Catching its breath I guess. Accumulation is going to be hard to assess due to melting as it falls, but my white styrofoam box lid is ready and waiting. Maybe an inch and a half??

Been away for work the last 10 days... what a difference! This setup reminds me of the storm in 2022 where we got close to a foot of snow, with the difference in our neighborhood being that many trees that had leafed out are all shriveled this year because of 20 degree temps a couple weeks ago- so, ironically, are protected! 35 F and 0.20 inches of rain so far.

3.3" here with good water content! Best in a month. Hoping this may start a trend. 29 F at 3 PM.

Gotta believe the models are up to their usual gaslighting. Believe it when it's actually melted and in the ground.
