mayjawintastawm Posted yesterday at 02:11 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:11 PM 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted yesterday at 04:43 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:43 PM About 8” now, and power went out an hour ago. The trees are already drooping a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the 12z models are coming in snowier, especially for your area it seems. 12z Euro... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted yesterday at 07:12 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:12 PM Amazingly, at 11" now. Snowfall rates are picking up too. This storm is definitely delivering for Larimer County. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted yesterday at 07:40 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:40 PM Some flakes mixing with rain here, temps up to 36. But the forecast really doesn't have any accumulation until the front passes late tonight. So no rational fears of a bust here, just the typical irrational ones.

mayjawintastawm Posted 21 hours ago Author Share Posted 21 hours ago 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??

Just light snow past couple hours, very little additional accumulation. Gonna be all about rates the rest of the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Heaviest snow of the event here west of 25 in Northglenn. Radar looks like some goods here for the next hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted 18 hours ago Author Share Posted 18 hours ago A very saturated 1.8" at 11 PM here. Rates, indeed! Need some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Almost 7" accumulated, but only 3" overnight, which was supposed to be the bulk of the storm. We'll see what this last wave brings this morning, if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValpoVike Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago After 3 swipes of the snowboard yesterday and today - final tally 19.5” here. Perhaps another inch coming this morning but it is winding down here. What a great storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Some excellent moisture for the area, especially the mountains. Hopefully that keeps the edge off fire season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Lots of power outages in Boulder and Denver areas from the very heavy wet snow. Is this going to end up a May record breaker for Boulder? This is from Boulder: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Looks like 5-7" around Denver, 9-11" around Boulder, 5-8" around Fort Collins, 8.5"-27" in the mountains, 8" near Colorado Springs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Looks like I'll pull an extra inch from this morning's stuff. So 8" Even with that, still has me under 50% of normal for the season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontranger8 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago 8" storm total here. By far the most I've seen in May in my 19 years here. 3.5" was my record. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just happy to get one more snowy day in after a terrible winter, and a bunch of drought-fighting moisture. The green up over the next week should be epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted 5 hours ago Author Share Posted 5 hours ago 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted 46 minutes ago Share Posted 46 minutes ago Most of mine melted already. For sunny spots that still have snow, probably only 2-3" left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
