Summary:<\/h3>\n

Winter continued yesterday with rain, snow and rain turning to snow overnight. Mid-level energy and a passing cold front helped the crossover from rain to snow occur during the afternoon hours. The cold, northerly winds and nightfall dropped the freezing level below 6K feet, so there were snow reports in the Urban Corridor this morning. However, not much was sticking to the ground. Rainy conditions once again started the day over the eastern plains. Radar indicates up to 1.5 inches fell. An impressive 1.75 inches fell in 3 hours over Beulah. The highest snow report was in Westcliffe where 12 inches fell.<\/p>\n

It has been quite the cool, wet start to spring, but after last year, this moisture is welcomed. I’ll leave this SPM with a little trivia. What was the latest date of measurable snow in Denver? Click here<\/span><\/em><\/a> for the answer.<\/p>\n

To see precipitation totals over in your neighborhood on Wednesday, scroll down to the State Precipitation Map below. Note the 4 inches in Parker is another error this morning.<\/em><\/p>\n

\nThe map below shows radar-estimated, rainfall gage-adjusted Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE<\/span>) across Colorado. The map is updated daily during the operational season (May 1 – Sep 30) by 11AM. The following six layers are currently available: 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation, as well as maximum 1-hour, 2-hour and 6-hour precipitation over the past 24 hour period (to estimate where flash flooding<\/span> may have occurred). The 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation contain bias corrections that are not disaggregated into the hourly estimates, so there will likely be some differences. The accumulation ending time is 7AM of the date shown in the bottom right corner. Also shown optionally are vulnerable fire burn areas (post 2012), which are updated throughout the season to include new, vulnerable burn areas. The home button in the top left corner resets the map to the original zoom.
