frontranger8 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 DEN picked up 8.5" of snow yesterday, putting them at 21.2" on the season and officially out of contention for least snowy winter in Denver records. Though it would be lowest in the airport era if no more snow fell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it weren't the EC and if we hadn't seen this pattern literally 80% of the time for the past 5 months, I'd shrug it off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frontranger8 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Looks like a big cooldown and chance of some snow over the weekend now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 CSU closed their campus this afternoon due to falling trees. I have heard that someone was injured and a car damaged. I clocked a high gust up here of only 47mph, but apparently FoCo had gusts over 60mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe more likely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValpoVike Posted Sunday at 02:35 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:35 PM It hasn’t been a terrible March up here. Sitting at 1.26” LE for the month. YTD is 1.74”, so yeah January and most of Feb was underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kinda tore up our trailer cover, that had previously survived fierce winds the past several years. Oh well the damage could have been worse - our house and trailer are still standing . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately every bit of moisture we get is quickly sucked up by the un-ending wind. I've lost track of the severe wind events we've had this past fall/winter; we've had our power knocked out 4 or 5 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost 3 large and mature trees in December, and a couple of weeks later I lost a portion of fencing. Looking forward to eventual calm weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted Monday at 03:19 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 03:19 AM 3.7" here, 12.7" total MTD which is almost half my season total. We're now over my 15-year season minimum of 21.6". Guessing a bit over 1" WE for the month, not bad if heat/dryness otherwise weren't fighting against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayjawintastawm Posted 6 hours ago Author Share Posted 6 hours ago For the archives: Yesterday was March 18. It was 80.1 degrees at my house. Heading to Crested Butte this weekend for a long-planned xc ski trip. We will bring the mud boots for hiking and leave the skis at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gallopinggertie Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Alaska is the only winner this winter in the western US. Juneau has had at least 50” of snow in March, and looks to have had something like 200” for the winter to date, over twice of their normal. Despite that, they’ve had just 67 days with 3” or more of snow depth, reflecting their maritime climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnster Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Just sharing some eye candy from March 14, 2021 - this pic is out our patio door. We're in the foothills northwest of Fort Collins. 40"+ from this one storm and 120" for that season. Man how things have changed in just 5 years - sad.
