What's the latest you've seen snow there? I don't think I've seen it more than a day or two after Mother's Day here.

GFS doubling down lol

WTF

Been nice to get a pretty cool stretch the past couple weeks.

The snowstorm this week officially delivered 5.8" to the airport, making it the biggest May snowfall for Denver since 2003. It also pushed 2025-26 down to 6th least snowy winter on record, with 33.1" for the season.

I'm totally fine with that! Just happy to get one more snowy day in after a terrible winter, and a bunch of drought-fighting moisture. The green up over the next week should be epic.

8" storm total here. By far the most I've seen in May in my 19 years here. 3.5" was my record.

Pretty much exact same here. Just light snow past couple hours, very little additional accumulation. Gonna be all about rates the rest of the storm.

All the 12z models are coming in snowier, especially for your area it seems. 12z Euro...

This one's looking pretty juicy. Not sure how long temps will be cold enough for snow, but I don't think precip will be an issue.

Think this is the first time I've seen a WSW in May.

Go figure, we couldn't get snow in February and are now gonna get slammed in May.

Somewhere above 6000' is gonna get buried. Doubt I get more than an inch or two here in the city, but at least it looks like a much needed soaker.

Disappointing week here. Had less than .15" total.

Looks like a nice, wet spring pattern coming up. No torching in the foreseeable future.
