As of late this afternoon, 52 inches in Sand Creek Park in Larimer County, up near the Wyoming state line. And 150 miles west of there, near Craig, CO, two funnel clouds and a damaging microburst. 200 miles east, in Yuma County, CO, two or three tornadoes. All of these reports are from today. Nothing quite like Colorado weather!
 
Certainly is interesting. I was chasing wednesday out east...then white knuckling the blizzard conditions on my way home from Denver on thursday evening. Then went out last night after lightning.

Love it!
 
A few days out, I believe the ECMWF had the low tracking further southeast, with QPF over 1.5" in central/southern CO high plains (including C.Springs). Amazing how this system changed in the models throughout the days prior.
