Compared to Thursday, Friday saw a downtick in rainfall intensity. However, rainfall coverage remained high with many areas both east and west of the Divide<\/span> experiencing a shower or two. Farther east, where easterly upslope winds remained (associated with a weakening Kansas low), stronger storms were found. In particular, a sequence of strong storms passed through Kiowa and Cheyenne counties resulting in over 2 inches of rainfall across a wide area, hail up to 1 inch and several tornado reports near Towner. Aside from this region, many other locations statewide picked up anywhere between 0.25 and 0.6 inches of beneficial rain.<\/p>\n

Of course, not be outdone, the higher terrain received measurable snow for a second straight day. Up to 3 inches was the norm for scattered<\/span> locations above 9,000 feet. For many locations above 10,000 feet, over 12 inches of snow water equivalent (SWE<\/span>) is still on the ground. This time of year, 1 inch of SWE<\/span> is roughly equal to about 3-5 inches of actual snowdepth. For all you skiers, this morning’s snow update from Arapahoe Basin showed an impressive snowpack of just under 5 feet! It looks like June skiing will once again be had.<\/p>\n

No official flooding reports were received yesterday, though it is likely that field flooding occurred in Kiowa County in association with the repeated strong thunderstorms moving through.<\/p>\n
