Even the BBC reports more – and heavier – avalanches in Colorado than in a century

Video – “Why is Colorado having so many avalanches?”  

Dr Ethan Greene from Colorado Avalanche Information Center explains what’s been happening.

“In the first nine days of March we documented about 472 avalanches.”

We’ve had the most avalanches in decades, in some cases more than a century, says Greene.
