SOUTHERN MOISTURE PROGGED TO LIFT NORTHWARD INTO COLORADO AS WESTERN LOW MOVES TO NEVADA. THIS STARTS THE BIG PUSH OF MOISTURE INTO THE EASTERN SAN JUAN MOUNTAINS. FOLLOWED THE MESOETA PATTERN PREETY
CLOSE AS IT SEEMS TO HANDLE THE TERRAIN PRETTY WELL. TIMING OF SHORT WAVES WILL STILL BE PRETTY DIFFICULT IN THIS FAST SOUTHWEST FLOW BUT SHOULD BE PLENTY OF BRUT FORCE TO BRING HEAVY SNOW TO SOUTHWEST SLOPES TONIGHT SPREADING INTO CENTRAL MOUNTAINS LATE TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. PATTERN DOES NOT CHANGE MUCH THROUGH SATURDAY AND GOOD FETCH OF MOISTURE CONTINUES THROUGH THE DAY. LEFT SNOW AMOUNTS ALONE OVER THE SAN JUAN AND LA GARITA MOUNTAINS BUT RAISED THEM IN THE EASTERN SAWATCH RANGE TO ACCOMODATE ADVISORY CRITERIA.

Actually you're wrong. The previous totals were including last night (where 4-6 were predicted) and today's forecast only accounts for today.
edit: though I think the totals will be less than forecasted after being up there (Alta) today.
