While it may seem like Colorado is seeing an excessive amount of snow and rainfall, climate experts told CBS4 all this moisture is what the state needs to help mitigate wildfire season and to help with water supply and a drought.
“Don’t panic. These showers are a good thing,” said Peter Goble, a climatologist at the Colorado Climate Center at Colorado State University. “I think this storm was a good thing primarily from a drought stand point, and mitigating the probability of things like wildfires later on.”
“We’re not going to see really hot temperatures, which if we did, snow would melt a lot quicker and flooding would be more of a concern,” Schlatter said. “The weather conditions are ideal for a nice slow gradual melt of that snow pack the next 5 to 7 days.”“It just takes one poorly-placed thunderstorm in the foothills on top of one of our many burn scars that we have, one poorly-placed thunderstorm to produce significant flooding,” he said.
