Weather Observations for Georgetown, Colorado

Week of April 10, 2023

A local National Weather Service volunteer observer makes temperature and precipitation observations each day at about 8 a.m. at the Georgetown Weather Station. Wind observations are made at Georgetown Lake. “Max” and “Min” temperatures are from digital displays of a “MMTS” (“Maximum/Minimum Temperature System”); “Mean daily” temperature is the calculated average of the max and min. “Total Precipitation” is inches of rainfall plus melted snow. “Snowfall” is inches of snow that accumulated during the preceding 24 hours. T = Trace of precipitation. NR = Not Reported. “Peak wind gust at Georgetown Lake” is the velocity in miles per hour and the time of the maximum wind gust that occurred during the 24 hours preceding the observation time. Historic data are based on the period of record for which statistical data have been compiled (about 54 years within the period 1893-2022). Any weather records noted are based on a comparison of the observed value with the historical data set.

green and Genesee until humans with a tremendous amount of patience and tenacity were able to corral her and bring her home.

During her month-long ordeal, Clover only lost about 12 pounds, and Bailee Wilson, the kennel manager for 4 Paws 4 Life Rescue and Boarding in Sedalia, said that was likely because of the many people in the area who left food out for Clover in case she came by.

Clover is back with the rescue, and Bailee now plans to keep her in her family.

Here’s the story: anks to social media, wildlife cameras and security cameras, Wilson could see that Clover was alive and on the move. But she eluded capture. en on April 6, Wilson heard that

Clover, who came to the rescue from a puppy mill in Oklahoma, was pregnant. After an emergency Csection in January during which only one pup survived, Clover was put up for adoption in March. Wilson said she was looking for a family who could provide the time and attention to a skittish, fearful dog who was not used to being part of a family.

An Evergreen family was selected to take Clover from many applications, and unfortunately, Wilson said, as she was getting out of the car for the rst time at her new home, Clover bolted. Nowhere to be found, the family, neighbors and Wilson put out signs and started looking for her.

Antler, and Antler led her mom to Wilson.

“Clover’s tail was so tucked under her body because she was so her back to Sedalia where she was in through, she’s so fascinating,” Wilson said of Clover. “She jumped up on me like she was excited to see me. She’s extremely fearful but has a good loving heart. She has a heart of gold.” ose on social media in the foothills know how common it is both for dogs to escape their homes and for them to be reunited with their owners.

Wilson gures that Clover didn’t lose much weight because she came to the rescue already underweight after being in the puppy mill, and while she had gained weight at the rescue, she still was accustomed to not eating a lot.

Ann Brown, the Evergreen Animal Protective League’s lost and found volunteer coordinator, said the nonpro t gets fewer calls about lost or found animals because people use social media more often for that purpose.

People need to pay attention to their animals, never assuming they will do what they normally do such as stay around the house because they can get distracted or decide to chase an animal, she said. Underground electric fences are not a panacea because something could be enticing enough to dogs that they are willing to experience the shock to go across the fence line. Brown has been able to match up animals with their owners by paying attention to social media posts.

EAPL provides tags to animal owners that are available at Chow Down in Bergen Park and Buster’s in Aspen Park. EAPL keeps information on the animal and pet owners in a database, and someone who nds an animal with an EAPL tag can call EAPL to get the owner’s information. e good news, she added, is most animals in the foothills are reunited with their owners.
