A climatology is developed for damaging downslope windstorms at Boulder, Colorado, based on newspaper accounts since 1869. One hundred and fifty-one documented windstorms provide the data on which statistical and climatological calculations are based. The area affected by downslope windstorms is described, information on the temporal distribution of the windstorms is given, including annual, monthly, and diurnal distributions, and windstorm characteristics are discussed. Wind-related damage is classified by severity and areal extent.
