Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn upper level low pressure system over southern Utah pumped moisture into southern Colorado. This abundant moisture, in conjunction with a strong cold front over southeastern Colorado, produced widespread snow across south-central and southeast Colorado starting early the morning of the 23rd. The mountains and higher terrain received between 1 and 3 feet of new snow, the foothills around 12 inches, and the rest of the area between 5 and 10 inches. The highest snow total reported was 26 inches at Cuchara in Huerfano county.
