<br />OOOJ23 <br /> <br />Since snowfall is recorded at most site$ only once a day in the early <br />evening, storms that begin in one time period and erxl in another are <br />considered to be distinct events occurring on concurrent days. On the <br />other hand, when two distinct storms occur in the same 24-hour recording <br />period, they are considered to be a single event. The effects of these <br />assumptions on removal costs are not known but assumed to be negligible. <br /> <br />TABLE 1 <br />National Weather Service observation sites and winters of low, average and <br />high snowfall in each county <br /> Winters of Indicated Long-term Mean <br /> Observation Snow Amounts Annual Snowfall <br />County Site WW Averaqe High ( inches) <br />Eagle Eagle 1958-59 1964-65 1961-62 48 <br />Garfield Glenwood 1946-47 1957-58 1936-37 71 <br /> Rifle 1935-36 1971-72 1972-73 41 <br />Lake Leadville 1965-66 1966-67 1969-70 128 <br />La Plata Durango 1946-47 1962-63 1964-65 70 <br />Ouray Ouray 1950-51 1967-68 1978-79 149 <br />Rio Blanco Meeker 1952-53 1954-55 1957-58 86 <br />Routt Hayden 1965-66 1954-55 1967-68 108 <br /> Steamboat 1937-38 1941-42 1964-65 166 <br /> Yarnpa 1971-72 1957-58 1949-50 118 <br />San Juan Silverton 1975-76 1949-50 1948-49 159 <br /> <br />-10- <br />
