10/26/2011 8:15 AM 0.99 9.0 0.99 9.0 M What a mess. It was tour de force to get this measurement; and it is my best estimate.This is the most snow I think I've ever seen on our place in 25 years. It is evenly distributed once you are out from under the trees. I took a transit rather than a single measurement to get snow death and it was rough trudging since the snow is deep and heavy. It's actually almost slushy. Another degree of so and it would have been rain. I think part of what fell melted, so snow depth is short of what actually hit the ground. The road is blocked by a tree that is 3'DBH and numerous branches. County crews are here to clear the road. REA is here to remove the tree crown off the major wires. Our house wire was taken down by a tree branch, the yard is impassible, and of 6 gates, only one is passable and one is crushed. There was a dramatic light at 1AM show when the tree fell across the wires and 4 7200V lines connected. It lit up the entire section. Most of the snow had fallen by then, because we moved the cars from under the trees and they were covered,(good thing as major branches began falling soon after and the driveway is now impassable) but where they were parked was still pretty bare the next day. Light snow continued to fall till about 1PM on Wed., but it was fine and melting as it hit bare ground.
10/27/2011 7:00 AM 0.10 0.5 M 9.0 M I think there was more snow than .5", but the snow board didn't register it. However, there seemed little difference from yesterday's levels and there was definitely melting of Tuesday's night's snowfall. We still have more snow on the ground, than I remember seeing in 25 years. It's heavy, wet, and sloppy. The trees are still way bent and more branches have broken off.
10/28/2011 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The county began tree cleanup on the mess along the road. The yard is still impassable and most branches are frozen to the ground. It didn't hit freezing, though melting occurred on those surfaces that collect heat from the sun, ie the roof. We got back electricity, which is really nice.
10/29/2011 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M There is about 90 to 95% snow cover and it's still several inches deep. It is very slushy and the ground quite water logger, like spongy when you walk on it. With the snow off many of the downed branches and tree, clean up looks even more daunting. The goats are happy with all the munching though.
10/30/2011 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M there was serious snow melt late yesterday; but still a lot of snow cover and standing water on the gravel driveway.

Not much wind with it either. No hail, just big rain drops.

Start Date End Date & Time Duration in Days Precipitation Snow Depth Snow Depth SWE Notes
2/10/2012 2/13/2012 9:00 AM 4 0.06 1.0 M I suspect that most of the snow fell during the day on Saturday, according to what my dad said about it and the state of tire tracks on the road and driveway when I got home Sunday evening. Light snow was falling at that point (~9:30pm Sunday) but the tire tracks from a visitor around dinnertime Saturday were still clearly visible under the small Sunday accumulation. Dad said that maximum snow accumulation was between 1.5 and 2 inches. On a side note, Highway 14 through Poudre Canyon was 99% black ice under snow as of 6:45pm through 9:30pm (when I left Walden and reached home, respectively), from Gould all the way to US287. Very dangerous driving conditions; I saw a rig two cars behind me slide out of control at least 3 times, and just barely avoided colliding with half a dozen deer myself at one point.
