The foothills would have been at that total or above “if” that warm nose didnt move in during the hardest precip of the evening. It was fat heavy flakes and switched to sleet for 45 mins to an hr between 6-6:45. .
It also shows some interesting past concepts that are known for our area. Like the snow to sleet back to snow that seems to happen a lot in the foothills with these systems. .
How has the RAP done in previous winter events around here? Specifically Jan 2022. Most of the globals had us around 3-4in for my area. We ended up with 7+. .
