Locally lower snow levels…We’re at 1400′ and got about 4″ of snow, all the trees heavy with snow; and it’s very snowy in the valley down below our ridge.
It snowed & a 1000ft @ 11:20am but didn’t stick
Yes had those little balls on east side of gulch, they were so odd! Not hail but literally itty bitty snowballs.
Hey weather folk what causes that? Super cool.
Def at least 2″ of snow flakes after that.
Crazy 2 days ago it was 78 at noon and today 35.
So is it done snowing?
