Sometimes the atmosphere locks into repeating patterns, bringing repeated bouts of rain or snow, or a lack thereof.
That’s exactly what is happening now, as yet another winter storm, Winter Storm Rocky, targets the Plains and Midwest, across many of the same areas impacted by Winter Storm Q.
Winter Storm Rocky has already dumped up to 27 inches of snow in the mountains just outside of Denver, and an official total of 9.0 inches at Denver International Airport.
As we start the new workweek Rocky is blasting the snow-weary — but also drought-weary — Plains and Midwest with a combination of high winds and heavy snow that’s already closing roads and creating whiteout conditions.
