11" on  Thursday and have heard anywhere from 5" to 17" coming Monday.  Hopefully start filling up some of those ponds.

6" down here in southern Okla. All gone the next day.

Looks like you are warm enough you will probably just get rain out the system moving through Monday.  How are your ponds down there?  We are way down for the last 2 years and everything is really starting to tighten up if we don't keep getting moisture.

We got mostly sleet with a snow mixed in at the end, about 2 inches total. Still on the ground this morning, but they said we should be in the 50s today. This next storm is saying several inches of snow Monday night.
I have to say I like it when it is frozen and not soft and slushy, yuck for feeding!!!

Had 6" more this morning with 20 mph winds for some 3' drifts. Makes for some slow going and not much fun for the calves.

15" NW Kansas, pretty strong winds, I'm 6'2" and had some drifts taller than me.  We are right on the edge for the heavier snow today and tomorrow.

Good for folks in Kansas.  You guys had it bad last year - hope this starts to break up the big dry spell.  SE Wyoming only got about 2 inches and it is blowing into 2' drifts.  No drought buster here yet.

What Ponds?  2 of my 3 have been dry for 2 years. Lake Texoma, 96,000 surface acres, at normal elevation, is down 11 feet!

Was weird, we got 16 inches at the ranch yesterday which is at the base of the mountain, 10 miles away in town, 3 inches. The storm just rolled off the mountain and dumped snow on us all day long. Was great to get the snow for our pastures and even more up in the mountain were our irrigation water comes from. But my brother in-law lost 2 calves from the storm, one froze to death the the cow left the calf and the other my sister in-law drove over in the backhoe plowing a clearing for the cattle that she could not see with 5ft plus high drifts, she was sick over that. My clubbies are not expected to start calving for another 4 to 5 weeks.
