I woke up to a surprise 4” snowfall this morning. I’ll take that any day.
-
Yep it’s March, thundersnow for the past 10 minutes.
-
Yeah it has been upside down over the past 24 hours. My low was 45 up here this morning while Ft Collins is currently sitting at 22.
-
My low was -10 this morning as well.
-
Useless but interesting fact - My wife is visiting family in Wasilla, Alaska this weekend, and currently it is 30 degrees warmer than my current temp of 7.
-
It's going to get cold for sure. Interestingly, I have noted over the past several years that January 10th-17th almost always features extreme cold for the front range. Last year it was on January 13th, with -19 recorded here. I don't have specifics for other years logged for my location, but I did start a log last year. It will be interesting to see in a few years how it holds up.

I took this while hiking the Twin Owls trail in RMNP today. One of the best days for lenticulars in quite some time.
-
Several days ago I just couldn’t believe the QPF that the euro was showing. It looks like it largely nailed it…but having only scored about 3” up here, I am indeed rather jealous.
-
Crazy amounts for sure, but the trend does seem to be pretty strong directionally for good moisture over the next 10-14 days.
-
I picked up about 1.5" yesterday, with most coming in the evening. Not much, but I'll take it...with an eye on early next week to add.
-
I think we may need a cold season thread starting on Tuesday.
-
It was very visible to the naked eye. Yesterday it was at mag 1.5, and I believe this evening it will be 2.5. For sure a bit dimmer this evening and there is a lot of smoke up here, so I don’t have my hopes up too much for a spectacular encore.
-
Another crisp evening, with a celestial bonus.
-
It appears that I will land at 2.97" for August. For my location, it was a productive and nearly perfect monsoon with almost daily rains coming in roughly .1" increments with a couple of of .5" days. More broadly, it did seem to be a mixed bag for August with KDEN logging just under an inch for the month.
-
Sweet!!!
-
Yeah, and all of this monsoonal moisture is coming just in time:
-
Yeah, totally socked in up here all day long in the fog. A very fall-like 55 currently.
-
We picked up .6” of rain today here on the western edge of the Alexander fire. It was a steady and gentle soaking too.
-
I am currently in evacuation on the Alexander fire, marking the second time in four years. Come on Monsoon…
-
Icky and smoky up here. The consolation is that it is not local smoke…yet.
-
Same here, where it is a bit frustrating to see decent QPF all around me. Meanwhile I have been clocking a steady .05"/day for quite some time. But even that I will take.
-
We have done a little better up here. It was dry until a week ago, and over the past week we have had daily .05” rains or so. The past two days have logged a quarter inch each. Not a ton, but better than it could have been. Temps have been quite seasonally average up here, likely tempered by 2pm’ish daily rains and cloud cover.
-
Yeah, no pings!
-
My new truck is at Wally Park, so was extremely curious. Guess I will know for sure on Tuesday!
-
Does anyone know if DIA received damaging hail?
