I think they've determined the storm is going to track far enough north that we won't get much here (tr-3"). The wind is sounding pretty nasty right now though.

According to the forecasts I've seen, the Front Range area is supposed to get a good dumping! So far, we have about 3" on the grassy areas, and I think we are supposed to get just a couple more inches throughout the day today.

We are at 7" now, and it's not over yet.

How about you guys?

I was just out trying to "set" my sunflower seed feeders so the BLACKBIRDS can't get into them, and I measured about 6", but it's hard to know where to measure because it's blowing some and pretty uneven.

It pretty much slowed down over nite after I posted last nite, but it picked up again a few hours ago and has been snowing moderately ever since.

I have an appointment in Boulder in a couple hours, and I hope I make it there and back in one piece! I'm not a big fan of driving in the snow!

How much does everybody else have?

I work in downtown...So far, looks like about 4-5" here, depending. But its still coming down like crazy, and as the temps drop, things will deteriorate. I can hardly wait to try to drive home tonight!

I am in southwest Boulder. So far we have 2 feet.
and its still snowing.

I ventured out a little while ago to get my mail in and I measured it in the middle of the front yard, which should be pretty accurate. Looks like I have about 11" by now, and they're still predicting a bunch more over nite tonite and tomorrow.

My appointment in Boulder got cancelled, so I didn't have to go out in it after all, and don't have to go anywhere tomorrow, so I'll be staying inside watching the "pretty snow!"

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

We had 15" at 4:30pm, which is about when the driveway was cleared. It looks like there's another 6".

The power went out for an hour this evening. It was dark so the kids enjoyed candles for awhile. I need to remember to toss those and the lighter in the trash!! The interest in fire was very strong.

Stay safe!!

Well, when I left the house this morning, it was about 16 inches at least. When I got home at 3:30 it was about six more inches. it just keeps on coming! Just over in Ward, someone had 3 feet and their plow broke...oops. It sure is welcome. We've been tromping around in it like smiling fools....wheee

I hope you all are having fun too!

I'm grinning, too, despite the extra work the snow brings. The horses and dogs are all bouncing around like Tiggers! It's so windy here that I can't get an accurate reading on the snowfall. We have 3 ft drifts in spots, generally the path from the house to the driveway has the highest drifts, go figure. The transmission is out on our plow truck, so shoveling it is. I don't have to be to work till 10 this morning, thank goodness! Our issue is living on a highway, every time the plows go by, they fill our driveway with snow and we get to start over. Oh well, the joys of living in the country! My daughter has no school, so she's enjoying hibernating in bed. Stay safe and enjoy!

Down here we whiffed on the storm, maybe 2". But it's 18ºF and for what ever reason, the guru's at the irrigation company decided to turn the water back on.

Which means I have all my taps running so they don't freeze up and crack. You should see how much ice build up you can get when it's 18º and a garden spray goes all night.....

Just got back from a trip yesterday and found 16" at the house here in Aurora, a couple drifts to 3 feet. The hoops over the greens were bent over from the weight of the snow, no plants lost and the water in jugs underneath had no ice. Crocus zonatus popping through snow with their cheery lavender color.
