More than a foot of snow pummeled the metro area on Friday, part of a winter storm that shattered three Denver snowfall records before moving east this afternoon. The brunt of the storm, which began Thursday evening, is over, and temperatures will start to climb today and tomorrow, said Jim Kalina, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Boulder. Not much more than flurries will fall through the rest of the day. The previous record for heaviest snowfall in one day in February was 9 ½ inches, set on Feb. 22, 1909, Kalina said. Friday’s total snowfall of 12 ½ inches broke the 103-year-old record by 3 inches. While some residents were digging out, others were having fun playing in the fresh snow.

Wow, I'm glad your computer is back and running again. I would be nuts if that happened to me. Your tech support sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteThe snow is fun and we haven't had hardly any here in the NC mountains. winter isn't over yet but it feels like spring.
We have snow skied downhill many times all over Colorado and Utah. Love that winter skiing. However, now we watch our grands ski and we love that too.
Have fun in the snow and stay warm.
Hugs, Jeanne
