We came up last night because the weather in springs was supposed to be horrible.

No skiing today bc the wind was crazy.

The locals say we are getting 1 to 2 feet by Monday.

Our host climbed everest to the Hillary step a good while back. Nice house

Breck reported 4 inches but I just walked out and measured 8 with a lot more on the way. A perfect 21 degrees. Vail is over a foot already.

Good day to be skiing with your son

That number is the mid mountain reading which includes the wind blow off. That's one problem with Breck, it gets dumps but a lot blows off. Not surprised given the winds yesterday.

We got about 14-18 in Glenwood. Hopefully the wind stays in check today. Should be a nice day and should be empty w the front range limited up 70.

Headed to Snowmass since getting to Vail and back looks to be a miracle today. Tomorrow and Tuesday mornings are supposed to be brutal cold. 0 degrees and 15-25mph winds.

I don't if ALOT more is on the way. Maybe like a 8-12 through tomorrow. Still solid numbers for the storm total. Vails at 24 through 5 and 30 through 6. Breaks at like 15 through 5 and 19 through 6/7. Vail's supposed to catch another 18-20 through Monday. So like 24-30 inches for Sumco and 45-50 inches for Eagle.

Wife just left Ridgway. She said the suns out over the San Juan's. Looks like most of this storm has blown through for today for SE Cooorado but when it cools down tonight we should get some decent bursts followed by some low and light but it'll take it. Looks like snow should stay through 1-2pm for central Colorado and then pick back up around 10/11pm. First time it's felt like winter all season. Roads are total *****

Rabbit ears is supposed to bath so thing like 40 inches between yesterday and Monday so yeah be careful out there if you're driving.

It is coming down so heavy right now. Avalanch guns every couple minutes. Starting to wonder if I will be able to get out of here tomorrow.

Looks like the best ride will be Tuesday morning. It's gonna be a slower snow fest until then.

70 closed eastbound at 176 (Vail). Looks like something slid into the eastbound lanes around mm 185/186.

I wouldn't be caught dead out a pass right now.

Still snowing. No idea how much has fallen, probably getting up around 3 feet. All roads closed.

I used to dream about getting snowed in, reality is it is boring af. Winds have died down. Yea
