Awful. Conditions just continue to worsen for Colorado's snowpack (and across many other western U.S. states), with average snow water equivalent nosediving after the historic March heatwave. (which actually continues today with more record heat!)

This is another one of those jump scare graphs, showing the number of 60°F days in Fort Collins, Colorado this winter compared to any prior season since the 1800s.

Neighbors missed the opportunity for 42 days. 😅

@ZLabe They should do a chart with the number of 80+ days. Seems like the chart would be almost blank except for this year.
