Paying Attention To The Forecast?
I am not exactly sure what is going to happen tonight, but something really good might happen. It sounds like it is raining hard in Denver. This afternoon I watched the storm pour over Black Mountain past The Basin and head down valley. We had a strong burst of snow during the day today. Right now, just after 7 PM, it is snowing heavily at my house at 9,000 feet. Those big, wet flakes are coming down. Our instrumentation at the ski area tells me it is snowing as I write. The forecasts are calling for snow tonight and tomorrow. A couple of forecasts are calling for modest numbers, 4-8" by tomorrow night. At least one forecast is calling for snowfall greater than a foot. You gotta' love a May like this. See you in the morning.
