Here are the historic blizzards/major snowstorms for Colorado--especially Denver and front range, with emphasis on the three largest. All are readily referenced--merely from the month and year they occurred. Why it would be necessary to name every predicted snow accumulation is beyond me...
In the first week of December, 1913, 45.7 inches of snow buried the city, making snow removal a terrible challenge. The open space in front of the state capitol building, now Civic Center Park, was the destination of hundreds and hundreds of horse-drawn wagonloads of snow.
A blizzard descended on the city on Christmas Eve, 1982, and dumped almost two feet of snow over the following day, virtually closing the city. People unable to get to work found recreational opportunities and schoolkids, naturally, got busy.
In the heaviest snowfall since 1913, a mid-March blizzard in 2003 dropped 31.8 inches in Denver, making it one of the costliest storms to address, at a whopping $33.6 million, based on insurance claims.
