Steam & Excursion > Durango, CO, Slammed by Snowstorm - Power OutageDate: 01/17/23 14:28 Durango, CO, Slammed by Snowstorm - Power Outage Author: cozephyr A friend living near Durango, Colorado, mentioned power was out in town account heavy snow and winds creating white out conditions. Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge RR employees had been sent home on 17 January 2023. He estimated about 20-inches of snow had fallen as of mid-day Tuesday.

the yard are under the snow as described. Hopefully it continues and the fire danger takes a year or two off. Out Date: 01/17/23 18:33 Re: Durango, CO, Slammed by Snowstorm - Power Outage Author: Cumbresfan cozephyr is correct, but they received 24 inches of snow. See the link:
