cbelke Posted September 9, 2020 Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 Chatted with a friend in Jackson Hole last night. The amount of thunder and lightning he was having was unbelievable. I could hear the thunder on the phone for much of the conversation. I could hear the wind howling, and he said his anemometer was hitting the 55 mph range quite a bit. They had thunder snow as well, albeit for only about 2" of snow. He said it was quite the wild weather day there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual 1 Day temp change for 9/7 was 50 degrees, 93 / 43. For this event the 24 hour temp change was 60 degrees, 93 degrees to 33 degrees. Where that falls in terms of the greatest temp change during any 24hr. period I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed the chart was the temperature difference from one day to the next - dropping or rising, not necessarily based on any 24 hour period. From CBS 4 in Denver: Monday night an unprecedented cold front sweep into Colorado causing a 62 degree drop from the high of 93 degrees on Monday to the low of 31 degrees on Tuesday. It was the biggest 2 day temperature swing ever recorded in Denver in September. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
