[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 147793, member: 1305"] Yeah the first thing I did after seeing that.....well other then laugh was to pull up the local NWS office and see what they had to say and saw the 50 inch forecast on their page. Living on the west side of the Continental Divide we didn't get very much orographic lifting at our house in winter but it was pretty cool watching the guys on the front range get hammered. The worst of the storm was oftentimes only 7 miles away yet we would be bright and sunny. But if you looked up at the divide clouds would be hanging in the gaps between the peaks onto our side like fingers of a hand. Now in summer the lifting was extremely obvious and would form thunder storms almost every day at the same time in the same spots like we were in Florida. Tell you one thing if they got 300 inches if someone got stuck out in that we would probably be looking at Donner party take two. [/QUOTE]
