Winter Storm in Jackson County Below 9000 Feet, Colorado

Heavy snow developed along western portions of the Urban Corridor and Palmer Divide and extended west into the Front Range Foothills as well as North Park. As a strong low pressure system intensified in the eastern plains, upslope flow developed over the area with strong northerly winds from 20 to 35 mph behind the storm. In North Park, Rand and Spicer picked up 11 and 12 inches of snow respectively. Snowfall totals in and near the Front Range Foothills included: 12 inches at Conifer, 9 inches at Doubleheader, with 4 to 7 inches reported at Crowhill, Evergreen, Hourglass Lake, Larkspur, Morrison and 7 miles northeast of Virginia Dale.
