The western side of Clark County also had pretty decent wet snow dumps in November 1996, January 2012, and of course April 2022. 4-5"+ in each of those but sloppy and fast melting. As much as I bag on this century for its lack of meaningful extreme cold, it really hasn't been super lacking here locally for snow for the most part when compared with 1970-1999. Although we have yet to see any storm that comes close to January 1980 this century, so even back then the highest highs were a little higher.

Tim?

12/03-1/04 was a really solid 10 period, even longer for us near the gorge. And it was achieved with what was not a particularly impressive long wave pattern. The front end definitely took advantage of the pattern happening at the coldest time of the year and the back end was a burly low level air mass.

Told ya!

Euro once again finishes in a spot that looks like it could do something about five or so days down the line.
