February By The Numbers

February was a cold month where the average high was 26 degrees Fahrenheit and the average low was 7 degrees. We began the month with lows of -22 and -23 respectfully. I heard somewhere that temperatures that low for three consecutive days could wipe out pine beetles. I would think two days would be troublesome enough.
Today we began clearing greens and the picture above gives you a good idea of exactly how much snow has fallen in Vail for the season. For the month of February, we have received 52 inches which amounted to 1.95 inches of moisture.
