Thursday Update:

The storm has departed Colorado and the incredibly cold air is moving off as well. We had a small amount of snow each day due to the incredibly cold air (it holds very little moisture for a system to work with).  Figure 1, 2 and 3 update show the morning snow reports for Tuesday through Thursday.

Longmont received about 3.3 inches of total snow.
Boulder received about 6 total inches of snow.
Broomfield received about 3.8 inches of snow.

We remain mostly dry for the next 10 days (maybe a bit of snow will swish by Friday).  Temperatures warm steadily to highs in the 60s and lows in the 30s next week. Hang on, it will get nice soon!
