14 Inches of Snow in Northern Colorado? Not So Fast

Over the last few days, there has been a lot of buzz about the possibility of an upcoming snowstorm that could dump more than a foot of snow along the Front Range of Colorado.

Social Media Snow Totals Are a BUST

While forecasts are always viewed as a "best-guess" scenario, only Mother Nature can tell for sure how much snow we will or, in this case, won't get. Numerous social media posts were showing the possibility of nearly 14 inches of snow from an upcoming storm that was forecasted for the Front Range starting on March 6 and going through the next day.

As much as I would love to be able to say we are going to get a massive snowstorm, it will not be happening. According to 9News, we might be lucky to get a bit of slush during the time of the suspected storm this upcoming weekend.

However, we probably shouldn't hold our breath. If March and April are anything closely related to the previous months this season, we might be out of luck. This may be a good thing for your back when it comes to shoveling snow, but a bad thing for drought.
