The episode as NWS PUB wrote it up.
An early spring storm system produced heavy snow accumulations across sections of southern Colorado. Some of the higher reported snow totals include...8 to 12 inches near Westcliffe (Custer County)...Black Forest...Calhan (El Paso County)...Trinchera (Las Animas County) and Walsenburg (Huerfano County). Seventeen to 20 inches was measured in and near the communities of Rosita (Custer County)...Rye...Beulah (Pueblo County)...18 miles west-southwest of Aguilar (Las Animas County). Twenty six inches covered the area four miles north-northeast of the Spanish Peaks (Huerfano County)...while around 30 inches was recorded around Trinidad (Las Animas County).
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Pueblo, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Apr 2, 10:36 AM MST, 2 hours 24 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 1136 AM MDT MON APR 2 2012 .AVIATION... STRONG WINTER STORM WILL CONTINUE AFFECTING THE REGION THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY. AT KCOS AND KPUB...STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH AT LEAST MIDDAY TUESDAY..WITH A MODEST DECREASE IN WIND SPEEDS MONDAY EVENING. ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE WILL BE STRONG ENOUGH TONIGHT TO OVERCOME THE DOWNGLIDE RESULTING FROM THE STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS. TAFS HAVE SNOW WITH IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES FROM MONDAY EVENING THROUGH AROUND 12Z TUESDAY. ACCUMULATIONS OF 2 TO 5 INCHES ARE FORECAST FOR KCOS. AT KPUB ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE LIMITED TO AN INCH OR TWO ON GRASSY SURFACES. AFTER 12Z TUESDAY...DOWNGLIDE FROM STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS WILL LIMIT PRECIPITATION AT KCOS AND KPUB. HOWEVER...HEAVY PRECIPITATION IS LIKELY NORTH OF KCOS AND SOUTH OF KPUB. AT KALS...STRONG EASTERLY WINDS WILL WEAKEN DURING THE EVENING. UPPER LEVEL FORCING SHOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SNOW AT KALS OVERNIGHT...WITH CHANCES FOR SNOW DECREASING AFTER 12Z TUESDAY. --PGW-- && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1017 AM MDT MON APR 2 2012/ UPDATE... LATEST HRRR AND LOCAL 4 KM WRF ALSO SHOWING ANOTHER INCREASE IN THE WIND GUSTS LATER THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THIS EVENING ALONG/SOUTH OF THE PALMER DIVIDE. THUS WILL BE EXTENDING THE HIGH WIND WARNING THROUGH 03Z. -KT PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1007 AM MDT MON APR 2 2012/ UPDATE... HIGH RES MODELS...HRRR...LOCAL 4 KM WRF ALL POINTING TO POTENTIAL HIGH WIND EVENT FOR THE EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE SAN LUIS VALLEY WHERE EASTERLY WINDS WILL POUR THROUGH THE GAPS AND VALLEYS OF THE SANGRES. GIVEN THE STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT BEHIND THE FRONT...THIS SEEMS PLAUSIBLE...AND HAVE PUT OUT A HIGH WIND WARNING FOR THE SAN LUIS VALLEY TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. HRRR AND LOCAL 4 KM WRF ALL INDICATE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 TO EVEN 70 MPH. SUSPECT THIS WILL BE FAIRLY LOCALIZED TO THE EASTERN FRINGES OF THE SAN LUIS VALLEY. HIGH WIND WARING ALREADY OUT. UPDATED GRIDS AND FORECAST TO FOLLOW SHORTLY. -KT PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 428 AM MDT MON APR 2 2012/ SHORT TERM... (TODAY AND TONIGHT) MAJOR SPRING STORM TO AFFECT OUR AREA... IRONICALLY...IT LOOKS LIKE THE BIGGEST STORM OF THIS SEASON WILL COME IN SPRING THIS YEAR. A STRONG COLD FRONT HAS ALREADY MOVED THROUGH THE NRN TIER OF OUR CWA THIS MORN..WITH GUSTS TO 40 KT ALREADY BEING REPORTED AT KCOS. THESE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS...WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 30-40 KT LIKELY AND SOME GUSTS IN THE 50-60 KT RANGE POSSIBLE. WILL CONTINUE THE HIGH WIND WARNING...AND EXTEND THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AS IT NOW LOOKS LIKE SUSTAINED WINDS COULD MEET HIGH WIND CRITERIA FOR AT LEAST SOME OF THIS AREA THROUGH THE DAY. STILL SEEING VERY DRY AND MILD CONDITIONS ACROSS THE PLAINS. TEMPS HAVE BEEN CLIMBING STEADILY AT KPUB WITH FRONTAL SUBSIDENCE. DEWPOINTS ARE RISING CONSIDERABLY BEHIND THE FRONT...BUT REAL MOIST AIR WILL HOLD OFF TIL LATER TODAY. SKIES ARE STILL CLR THIS MORN AND LOW CLOUDS IN THE SAT FOG PRODUCT ARE CONFINED TO NW CO ATTM. HAVE SEEN CONTINUED LIGHT-MDT ECHOES OVR WRN CO ALL MORNING...AND WHILE OBS ARE RATHER DEVOID OF PRECIP...SUSPECT THE HIGHER PEAKS ARE SEEING SOME PRECIP THIS MORN. THE FRONT WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A VERY DYNAMIC SYSTEM THAT IS NOW MOVING INTO THE 4 CORNERS REGION. THIS SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO STRONGLY INTENSIFY AS A VERY STRONG MID LEVEL JET STREAK MOVES THROUGH SRN NM. THE UPPER LOW WILL TRACK JUST S OF KABQ THIS AFTERNOON...AS A CLASSIC AND INFAMOUS 'ALBUQUERQUE LOW'. WILL SEE TEMPS HOLD STEADY OR FALL LATER TODAY AS COLD AIR CONTINUES TO POUR IN BEHIND THE FRONT...AND H7 TEMPS FALL TO MINUS 8 TO MINUS 10 BY THIS EVE. MAIN ACTION WITH THIS STORM WILL BE TONIGHT...AS THE JET BEGINS TO ROUND THE TROUGH BASE AND THE UPPER LOW MAKE A MOVE TO THE NE. THIS IS THE TRACK THAT HAS BEEN FAVORED BY THE GFS AND ECMWF FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS...AND THE NAM HAS FINALLY CAUGHT ON TO THIS SOLUTION IN A BIG WAY. TIMING WILL BE PERFECT FOR A HEAVY SNOW EVENT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...AND COULD EVEN SEE SOME SNOW AT THE LOWER ELEVATIONS DUE TO THE FAVORABLE OVERNIGHT TIMING AND PRIMED CONDITIONS. WET BULB ZERO WILL FALL STEADILY FROM AROUND 6500 FT TODAY TO AS LOW AS 4500 FEET TONIGHT. EXPECT THAT MOST LOCATIONS ABOVE 6000 FEET...INCLUDING KCOS...WILL SEE SOME SNOW. OF COURSE...WITH VERY WARM GROUND MUCH OF THE EARLY SNOWFALL WILL FAIL TO ACCUMULATE INITIALLY...BUT WITH A GOOD 8-12 H PERIOD OF SNOW COULD SEE SOME LIGHT ACCUMS FOR THE I-25 CORRIDOR. KCOS LOOKS TO BE SOLIDLY BELOW FZG FOR THE MAIN EVENT...AS THE TROWAL REALLY KICKS IN FROM 03Z TO 12Z OVERNIGHT. ANY PRECIP BEFORE 03Z WILL LIKELY BE RAIN OR A RN/SN MIX. N WINDS MAY LIMIT PRECIP FOR S EL PASO AND N PUEBLO COUNTIES...BUT VERY STRONG ISENTROPIC LIFT MAY OVERCOME SOME OF THE DOWNSLOPE DRYING EFFECT. AS FOR 'WINTER' HEADLINES...HAVE CONVERTED OUR WATCH TO A WARNING...AND ADDED THE WET MOUNTAIN VALLEY AS WELL. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE IN EXCESS OF 2 FEET FOR THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS OF THE WETS/SANGRES...IF CURRENT PROGS PAN OUT AS EXPECTED. RATON PASS WILL BE PARTICULARLY PROBLEMATIC TONIGHT AND TUE AS STRONG N WINDS COMBINE WITH SN TO PRODUCE WHITE OUT CONDITIONS AT TIMES. CONSIDERED UPGRADING TO A BLIZZARD WARNING FOR THE RATON...BUT CURRENTLY DOES NOT LOOK LIKE WINDS WILL BE SUSTAINED LONG ENOUGH...AND HEAVIEST PRECIP OCCURS AFTER THE STRONGEST WINDS. HOWEVER...WILL NEED TO WATCH THIS AREA CLOSELY. ALSO HAVE INTRODUCED A WINTER STORM WATCH FOR TELLER AND N EL PASO FOR TONIGHT AND TUE. COULD GET PRETTY NASTY OVER MONUMENT HILL BY TUE. HOPEFULLY THIS STORM WILL PUT A DENT IN THE DROUGHT. LET IT SNOW! 44 LONG TERM... (TUESDAY - SUNDAY) BENEFICIAL PRECIP AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PD THEN DRYING OUT AGAIN... MODELS IN THE EARLY PART OF THIS FCST PD HAVE COME INTO GOOD AGREEMENT BRINGING THE CUTOFF LOW NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS SE CO. BY 12Z TUESDAY...SNOW AND RAIN SHOULD BE ONGOING ACROSS A GOOD PART OF THE REGION...WITH THE BEST CHANCE OF PRECIP OVER THE EAST FACING SLOPES OF THE MTNS ADJ TO THE PLAINS...AND THE RATON MESA AND PALMER DVD REGIONS. THE RAIN/SNOW LINE AT 12Z WILL LIKELY BE AROUND 5000 FEET. FOR THE MORNING RUSH HOUR...SNOW WILL LIKELY NOT ACCUMULATE MUCH ON ROAD SURFACES BETWEEN 5000 AND 6500 FEET...BUT ANYTHING ABOVE 6500 FEET WILL LIKELY BECOME SLUSHY. GRASSY SFCS BETWEEN THE AFOREMENTIONED ELEVATIONS WILL LIKELY ACCUMULATE SOME SNOW...SO THE PUEBLO AREA MAY SEE AN INCH OF MEASURABLE SNOW. OVERALL...TWO TO THREE INCHES OF SNOW WILL LIKELY OCCUR ACROSS THE EASTERN MTNS/RATON MESA AND PALMER DVD...WITH LOCALLY HEAVY ACCUMS ACROSS PIKES PEAK AND THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE EAST SLOPES OF THE WETS/SANGRES. BY MIDDAY TUESDAY...THE LOW CENTER ALOFT WILL LIKELY BE IN THE SE CO AREA AND 700 MB FLOW WILL BECOME MORE NORTHERLY ACROSS THE WETS/SANGRES. THIS SHOULD ALLOW THE SNOW TO DECREASE ACROSS THESE REGIONS AS THE FLOW WILL NOT BE AS FAVORABLE...BUT FARTHER NORTH ACROSS THE GREATER PIKES PEAK REGION MODEST NE 700 MB FLOW WILL BE ONGOING. LIKEWISE...THE PALMER DVD REGION AND RAMPARTS/PIKES PEAK WILL LIKELY SEE SNOW CONTINUING. THE RAIN/SNOW LINE SHOULD INCREASE A BIT DURING THE DAY...BUT NOT BY MUCH. BY LATE IN THE DAY TUESDAY THE RAIN/SNOW SHOULD PRETTY MUCH BE OVER ACROSS THE PLAINS...HOWEVER BOTH NAM/GFS SHOW WRAP AROUND PRECIP CONTINUING OVER THE HIGHER TRRN OF THE MTNS..ESPECIALLY THE SANGRES AND SAN JUANS. FOR THIS REASON I HAVE INCREASED POPS OVER THESE REGIONS DURING THIS TIME. NOTE THAT THE WINTER STORM WARNING FOR THE SANGRES EXPIRES AT 00Z WED. IF THE MODELS ARE CORRECT...THIS WARNING MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED FOR THIS MTN RANGE BY ABOUT 6 HOURS OR SO. AS FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES ON TUESDAY...I HAVE DECREASED THEM...WITH TEMPS REACHING ABOUT 40F ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR REGION...AND THESE VALUES MAY BE A BIT TOO HIGH IF THE MODEL SOUNDINGS ARE CORRECT. OVER THE FAR E PLAINS AND SAN LUIS VALLEY...HIGHS SHOULD BE ABOUT 50F. AS FOR THE REST OF THE FCST...WE WILL BE RETURNING TO A DRY PATTERN AGAIN AS SW FLOW GRADUALLY RAMPS UP ONCE AGAIN. IF WE DO GET AS MUCH PRECIP AS THE MODELS ARE INDICATING...THEN FIRE WX CONCERNS SHOULD DROP SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE FCST AREA. ATTM...THE WARMEST TEMPS SHOULD BE DURING THE FRI-SAT TIME FRAME WITH A DRY PAC FRONT COMING ACROSS THE REGION SAT NITE. TEMPS WILL COOL AGAIN ON SUNDAY. THE NEXT CHANCE OF PRECIP...ACCORDING TO THE GFS WILL BE MONDAY...BUT THE EC SIMULATION IS DRY FROM WED THROUGH NEXT WEEK. \/34 AVIATION... STRONG N WINDS BEHIND A COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT KCOS AND KPUB THROUGH THE NEXT 6-12 H. SUSTAINED WINDS FORM 30-40 KTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH THIS EVE...HOWEVER...PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE LIKELY OVERNIGHT...WITH A GOOD CHANE OF SN AT KCOS AND A RAIN-SNOW MIX POSSIBLE AT KPUB LATER TONIGHT. ALONG WITH GUSTY WINDS VIS IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW OVERNIGHT IN PARTICULAR. KALS WILL ALSO SEE GUSTY NE WINDS AND THE CHANCE OF SOME SHSN...BUT THE WORST CONDITIONS WILL BE ALONG AND W OF I-25. 44 && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

SUSTAINED WINDS OF 30 TO 40 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 60 MPH OR MORE CAN BE EXPECTED. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOCAL POWER OUTAGES...AS WELL AS HAZARDOUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS...WITH DANGEROUS CROSS WINDS ON EAST TO WEST ORIENTED ROADWAYS ACROSS THE PLAINS...AND NORTH TO SOUTH ORIENTED ROADWAYS ACROSS THE SAN LUIS VALLEY. THESE STRONG WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING BEFORE GRADUALLY DIMINISHING LATER TONIGHT. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST COLORADO LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THE MAIN THREAT WITH THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING...AND WIND GUSTS UP TO 50 MPH...ALONG WITH BRIEF HEAVY RAINFALL. PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY LATER TODAY AND THROUGH TONIGHT. SNOW LEVELS COULD FALL BELOW 5000 FEET TONIGHT...BUT MOST OF THE ACCUMULATING SNOW IS EXPECTED FOR ELEVATIONS ABOVE 6000 FEET. THE GREATEST SNOWFALL IS EXPECTED OVER THE WET MOUNTAINS AND SANGRE DE CRISTO RANGE...WHERE UP TO TWO FEET OF SNOW COULD FALL BY LATE TUESDAY AT ELEVATIONS ABOVE 9000 FEET. THE PIKES PEAK REGION...ESPECIALLY PIKES PEAK ABOVE 9000 FEET AND THE PALMER DIVIDE...COULD ALSO SEE A PERIOD OF HEAVY SNOW TONIGHT. TRAVEL OVER THE PASSES...INCLUDING MONUMENT HILL...RATON PASS...AND LA VETA PASS...COULD BECOME HAZARDOUS LATER TONIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING...AS WIND DRIVEN SNOW REDUCES VISIBILITY TO NEAR ZERO AT TIMES. PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT FOR MORE INFORMATION. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY FOR TUESDAY...SNOW WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT PLAINS...ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING. SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS. SOME ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON THE ADJACENT PLAINS. TRAVEL ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN PASSES...INCLUDING LA VETA PASS...RATON PASS AND THE PALMER DIVIDE MAY BE DIFFICULT. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL BE LIKELY TODAY AND TONIGHT ACROSS ALL OF SOUTHEAST COLORADO. 31/23
