The storm track favored northwest Colorado with respect to snowfall and increased snowpack. In contrast, cold season precipitation and the mountain snowpack remained well below normal across southwest Colorado. As a result, moderate drought conditions returned to a portion of southwest Colorado, while the moderate drought conditions which had persisted across extreme northwest Colorado diminished. Although much of western Colorado was no longer listed as having any abnormal dryness or drought, the water supply remained a concern following years of below normal precipitation and drought. For a continuation on this drought situation please see the February 2006 Storm Data publication.
