Fort Collins woke up to a thin blanket of snow on Saturday morning, while parts of Weld County were looking at a layer more like your overstuffed down comforter.

Data provided by weather watchers to the Community Collaborative Rain Hail and Snow Network, or CoCoRAHS, showed Fort Collins received anywhere from half an inch to 2.5 inches of snow.

But over in Weld County, there were reports of up to 13.5 inches of snow around Greeley and Evans, according to reports to CoCoRAHS and the National Weather Service.

There, the snow fell intensely in a short period Friday night. Snowfall reports were as high as 12 inches by 1:30 a.m.

Saturday's forecast indicated there was a chance for a few more flakes to fall in the Fort Collins area, but not more than an inch, according to the National Weather Service.

A morning post from the NWS Boulder on X.com said the snow would move south and east of Denver and north of Fort Morgan to the Nebraska panhandle.
