| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A fast moving Pacific storm system continued to add to an already impressive snowpack in the northern mountains. Sustained west to northwest winds from 30 to 40 mph were not uncommon. A peak wind gust to 80 mph (70 kts) was recorded at the Breckenridge Ski Area, above 10,000 feet. Snowfall totals included: 14 inches at Berthoud Pass, 9 inches at Loveland Ski Area, 7 inches at Keystone and 6 inches at Winter Park. |
