| Episode Narrative | A slow moving pacific storm system, ejecting from the Desert Southwest, brought a period of unsettled weather to Northeast Colorado. During the 3-day period from May 3rd to May 5th, locally heavy snow was reported over parts of the Front Range Foothills. Storm totals included: 15 inches near Conifer, 14.5 inches west of Jamestown, 13.5 inches; 6 miles southwest of Evergreen, and 12.5 inches at Pine Junction. Severe thunderstorms, producing large hail and several small short-lived tornadoes, occurred during the period as well. No damage was reported with any of the tornadoes. In addition, lightning struck a residence in Jefferson County. The roof of the house was hit, causing the attic to catch on fire. The fire was confined to the one room; there were no injuries. At Denver International Airport, lightning also struck a United Airlines jet as it was pushing away from the gate. The passengers were taken off the jet and put on another plane. |
| Event Narrative | A small tornado touched down in open country but did no damage. |
