...Today in metro Denver weather history...

3     In 1875...very dense haze hid the mountains from view as
        observed from the city.
      In 1933...rainfall of just 0.01 inch was the only precipitation
        of the month.  This was the second driest October on record.
      In 1954...the low temperature cooled to only 60 degrees...the
        all-time record high minimum for the month October.
3-4   In 1969...from the 3rd to the 4th...the first snowfall of the
        season totaled 16.0 inches at Stapleton International
        Airport.  There was a thunder snow shower on the evening of
        the 3rd...but otherwise little wind with the storm.  The
        greatest snow depth on the ground was 8 inches due to
        melting.  Heavy wet snow accumulated on trees...which were
        still in full leaf...and caused widespread damage from
        broken limbs and downed utility lines.
3-5   In 1984...from the 3rd to the 5th...the remnants of Pacific
        Hurricane Polo produced heavy rain over northeastern
        Colorado.  Most locations received between 1.00 to 2.50
        inches of rain...but 3.45 inches fell in Littleton.  Rainfall
        totaled 1.73 inches at Stapleton International Airport...
        where north winds gusted to 24 mph.
