It Has Begun!!

May 5, 2026 | Winter Weather

Awakened this morning to falling SNOW already at my house here in northern Colorado.  Ground still warm, so despite a dusting in the heavier bands, most of that melted quickly as snow lightened up.  It’s gonna need some time to stick.  Further north, Wellington to Cheyenne, accumulations are piling up with several inches of snow in/around Cheyenne on the ground already.  Snow probably won’t start sticking in earnest until later today OR we get a consistent, heavier snow to come down to offset the ground warming.

Still, expecting a pretty hefty hit of snow in northern Colorado, a VERY VERY WELCOME need.  With last night’s rain, I am already sitting at 0.66″ of liquid at my place.  Keep it coming!  Below is the latest NWS forecasted accumulations for the storm as of Tuesday morning.  I’ll be heading out shortly!
