No worries, this is just data based on every past El Nino year, take it as you like. I'm a 5th generation Coloradan, so I'm right with you on what the weather is like here. Still, El Nino does what it does to the Southern Rockies while Denver usually has an equal chance for wetter or drier than normal weather during El Nino, and the Southern Rockies usually get pummeled.

One of the old timers I work with lives in Lake City, and while it's drier on that side of the mountain (Rain shadow causes a precip dump on the West Side and relatively dry on the east), he still concurred the insight yesterday when I asked him about what El Nino usually does to that side of the state. Southern Denver is VERY different from SE Colorado when it comes to weather patterns... Of course: If you live here all your life, you must know that...

But outside of opinion: just because you live here all your life, doesn't make you an expert on SE Colorado weather patterns and how El Nino affects them... To completely discount the possibility of more, epic snow events at the mill would be FOOLISH. Though, to say it's an absolute possibility would also be FOOLISH. El Nino has a high probability of developing between August and September, as per NOAA, and that leads to more snow in SE Colorado... The Platte River Basin (Denver Basin and North) is very different in regards to how the pattern affects weather...

Just keeping it real.
