Here's a look at snow totals in our area

Posted

We saw a wide range of snow totals ranging from 7 inches near Lake Isabel to 2 inches closer to Peterson Air Force Base. Overall, this storm system gave the higher totals to our friends closer to the mountains and the higher terrain. This was due to the downsloping winds helping the snow to evaporate before reaching the ground.
