Summary<\/h3>\n

Heavy mountain snow and a chance for some snow\/wintry precipitation at lower elevations was in the forecast, and that’s exactly what we got with this spring storm! Over a foot of new snow was recorded in the Northern Mountains, including 13.0” on Trail Ridge Road in Larimer Country. The below map from NOHRSC shows interpolated snowfall observations ending at 6:00 am this morning across the state. In addition to the Northern Mountains, centers of 8-12 inches of snow were also observed in the Central Mountains and along the Palmer Ridge. At lower elevations along the Front Range and Eastern Plains, there was widespread<\/span> light snowfall, with some pockets up to 6 inches as well. Additional snowfall reports from the NWS<\/span> are found in the table below as well.<\/p>\n

When it wasn’t falling as snow, there was still plenty of rain accompanying this system. CoCoRaHS<\/span> observers in Fort Collins recorded over an inch and half of liquid precipitation in just 24-hours, and there were similar liquid precipitation totals on the Southeastern Plains. Due to the long-duration and low-intensity nature of yesterday’s precipitation, flooding was not reported on Monday.
