unfortunately not drunk. I always considered a whore someone who you pay for sex, where as a slut is a girl that just gives it up to everyone.

Storm came down south to the San Juans, precip. all night turning to
snow some time early am. I like the crappy Colorado snow pack,
seperates the men from the boys!

Boy, I.
I'll take an Intermountaintish Maritime snowpack anyday (e.g. central OR, eastern Sierra, etc) over our sketchball CO whore-ridden beds...
But I'm still stoked to see this storm coming in!Thrutchworthy Production Services

I like the maritime snopac but in Europe, when they get pounded that is.

Reading the reports this morning, looks like the storm is digging further south than previous runs. Still going to be a good upslope component this afternoon into evening and overnight, but the models are hinting that the low level flow will be more N/NW, which will push a lot of the heavy precip bands to the east of the urban corridor.
First snows are always exciting. Be safe everyone.

10 am in summit co and it has switched from rain to snow, and is coming down fairly hard right now. Monday is the day for me, probably to jones if anyone is game.

So much for biking the Ned today.
But that is not at all a bad thing.
"Monday: snow. 90% chance precip.
Tuesday: heavy snow. 80% chance precip." (For Ned, that is)

compiled noaa forcasts show don't count your chickens just yet if you want the snow actually in the mtns
i think the frontrange is getting more snow than anywhere else... probably only 6-10" around summit/grand/clearcreek... 5-8" for lake/eagle...
the actual frontrange frontrange is going to get this one. noaa says boulder could see more than a foot and golden/evergreen could see 18"
Eldora Zone like the place to be if you want the turns out of this...
But then moving East shows more snow... ie even going from eldora to nederland shows a predicted increase of 7-12" to 9-14"
then again what good are forecasts in the mountains?Originally Posted by blurred
