Winter Storm Brings Snow to West and Central Wyoming

 February 8, 2004 -  A low pressure system moved into Utah on Saturday, February 7th and dumped 4 to 8 inches of snow across much of the far west Wyoming.  The system then tracked across southern Wyoming Saturday night and Sunday; spreading 2 to 4 inches of snow across central Wyoming with as much as a foot of new snow southwest of Lander. 

Thanks to the help of our spotters and cooperative observers, we have compiled the following list of snowfall totals.
