With 0.2" of snow yesterday all there was this month, it will be a new record-low snowfall total for October. This is particularly unusual considering that El Niño is afoot, albeit on life-support. |

Towards the end of all this, some snow mixed in, but the bulk fell as snowpellets or graupel. And so this very unusual snow season continues to have trouble with the 'on-ramp'…
(this could have been a much bigger storm for us, looks like we were off by one county (Larimer) in terms of 5 times more moisture. |

Tmax: 42 early (<9am); Tmin: -1. Biggest temperature drop around noon when it went from 32F to about 21F in half an hour. Snow began in late morning and continued past midnight, although that last stretch was only 0.1". Interesting period from about 6pm onwards, past the predicted end of snowfall when a persistent band of snow stretched south of Peaceful Valley east-southeastward to about Jamestown (based on driving thru it around 8pm, and based on radar) for several hours and dropped about 1/4" per hour until about midnight. A lot of settling overnight to keep depth at 3" even with 1.2" total since evening measurement around 8pm. A few flurries and overcast this morning, with temperatures hovering just above 0F. |

Tmax: 04; Tmin: -12. Brr, this is colder than anything I have ever measured up here in November! Temperature did not break 5F yesterday, and is hovering below -10F this morning. Flurries all day, but only amounting to 1.3/0.08" by midnight when we were down to the high single numbers below 0F. A snow band set up overhead sometime after 1am to give us fluffier snow (2.6/0.12") since then, despite staying really cold. Still snowing this morning, under overcast skies. May not get above 0F today, also a new record for this calendar month (since 1990). |

Tmax: -5(!); Tmin: -18. Coldest day on record for November yesterday, with a subzero high and a low of -18F overnight. Set new monthly record lows twice for Tmin (old record was -11F in early November 1991), and once for Tmax (my earliest subzero high on record was back on December 7th, 2005). My observations began in 1990. Snow continued lightly all day, ending around 7pm (only a few flurries after that, under generally clear skies). Cold air vacated this morning (only -6F by 7am), without any noticeable wind. Snow"pack" is still settling, perhaps even melting from below, with only 4.5" to show for just about 10" of snow that have fallen in last three days. By comparison, my banister was still carrying 7" this morning, so half of the drop most be due to melting from below, kind of unusual for so late in fall season. |

Tmax: 30; Tmin: 02. Very small snow pellets commenced before 11am, surprisingly early, but snowfall rates remained slow thru afternoon (2.0"/0.17" thru 4:45pm), then a few hours of moderate snow (1"+/h), totaling 3.3"/0.17" by 7:30pm, tapering off to a very fluffy (30:1) 2.1" by midnight, and another 0.9"/0.05" since then. Still snowing lightly and just above 0F this morning - winter has definitely made a comeback, also yielding deepest snowpack of the season so far. Looks like our sub-freezing string will continue thru New Year's - Seasons Greetings! |

Arctic 'fizzle' snow accompanied this into the night, denser than 10:1. 700mb temperature was -24C in Denver this morning. All in all very similar to that cold snap in November, but this one should be shorter-lived, although it would be surprising if it got above 0F today. |

Heavy snowfall rates continued thru 11am (9.8" out of 0.28" H2O), so one could say it was "heavy light snow"… The next 10 hours or so it never quite stopped, yielding another 2.3/0.15" (no more fluff). Calendar-daily storm total of 16.6" is my 2nd highest on record for a February day (35.7" fell in early February 2012). Perhaps of interest is that my 3rd highest daily total in (late) February occurred in 2013 (15.2"), so there is a bit of a trend going on. By late evening, temperatures were rising again out of the teens into the high 20s, along with occasional gusty winds, as the cold air was flushed out. Peak snow depth yesterday hovered around 20" in PM, but settled overnight by 2". Milky sunshine this morning, winds have calmed down, at least for the time being. Winds gusted to 32mph, and I went skiing (easier to break a trail than expected (it was fluffy), but also still subpar snowpack (heterogenous)). |

Tmax: 43; Tmin: 22 (actually 21 yesterday morning). First day above freezing since February 20th, felt very warm! Pretty good inversion around Jamestown (saw low 40s on my car thermometer above it and high 20s below it around 1pm). Good settling of snowpack. Spill-over snow during night, less than further north. Measurement by neighbor. |

Tmax: 41/Tmin: 24 before and after midnight. Got home last evening, after thunderstorm deposited soft hail and some rain in my gage (0.03"/T for that (by 9pm MDT)). As best as I can tell light snow started falling around 5am this morning, steady light to moderate by 8am (only to intensity right after that). Down to 24F right now, the rain/snow line will stay below us for this one. If we end up over 20", this would be a once every other April storm, if we get more than 3', a once-per-decade April event. Here is hoping for the latter, although it may trap me up here… Snow depth rounded up to 1.5" due to leftover ' stranded flounders' from the winter (as opposed to the more customary 'beached whales' for this time of year). |

This was followed by decent snow thru 1am MDT (8.8/0.91"). Unfortunately, precipitation turned to a nasty mix of snow pellets/sleet, and even freezing drizzle at time after that so that about the same amount of moisture by observing time (0.87") only 'produced' 4.1" of "snow". Storm total now: 2.56/20.3", not quite in the Top 10 for April snows yet, but for moisture. Temperatures hovering in high 20sF overnight, never broke freezing yesterday. |

Tmax: 37/Tmin: 20 last evening/24 since midnight. Cutoff low is finally moving out of our state, but not before wrap-around moisture gives more snow: 0.5/0.06" by noon, then a break (even some sunshine) and slightly above freezing again to melt all this. More serious snow came back around 4pm and dropped 2.3/0.20" by about 7pm, followed by partial clearing and the lowest temperatures of the week (around 20F). Clouds and snow rolled back in around 1am MDT, dropping 1.7/0.14" by about 3 or 4am. Snow depth measured again, looks like there must be some melting from below to assist the daily melting period from the sun, thus snow depth is stagnating. Sure looks wintery.
