Colorado's main moisture sources are shown in Figure IH, Depending on weather patterns, the <br />type of flood events may difler from year to year, For example: <br />. In 1983, 1984 and 1995, Colorado experienced high snowpack, due to high levels of moisture <br />from the Pacific Ocean, <br />. In 1965 and 1973, major spring floods along the Front Range and Eastern Piains were caused by <br />excessive moisture out of the Gulf of Mexico. <br />. In 1911, 1970, 1972 and 1997, Southwestern Colorado experienced area-wide flooding, due to fall <br />.... Pacific moisture sources, <br />I In 1997, monsoonal moisture caused flooding in mountain areas and across the state, with the <br />, exception of Northwestern Colorado, <br /> <br /> <br />Rgure 11-1 - Colorado's Main Moisture Sources <br /> <br /> <br />Section 11.2 <br />
