This may have inflated some of the totals in the gages, but these amounts seem reasonable and replicated at more than one site. Light snow was also reported earlier in the morning\/Monday night at the highest elevations along this same band. The eastward moving band of showers lifted north with the jet by midday.

Totals just under 0.50 inches were reported in the storm cores. A brief storm also popped up over Morgan County, but observations in the area indicate very little rainfall reached the ground. Overnight lows got chilly with Alamosa dropping to 30F &ndash; that is a new daily record low and ties the all time monthly (July) record.
