Title	Meteorology of Major Storms in Western Colorado and Eastern Utah
Description	A study of the forty-two most intense general storms in eastern Utah and western Colorado between 1899 and 1968.
Abstract	The 42 most intense general storms in eastern Utah and western Colorado since 1899 are studied in relation to the observed or estimated broadscale upper air circulation patterns and sources of moisture. The report summarizes individual analyses of the storms. Storms are typed by reference to the behavior of the 500-mb patterns. The role of upper Lows in transporting moisture is emphasized. Indices are developed which evaluate storm moisture, temperature and influence of topography. The relative importance to the precipitation sequence of peak moisture versus proximity of upper Lows or troughs is compared. Moisture source regions are related to storm type and season. Local topographic effects are summarized by upper wind direction. Other relationships between various factors are discussed -- Author
