Gives me more of a reason to not visit for 8 months a year (aka ski season).Quote:

Crank the ac and don't go outside. I had to live in a city with 90% humidity and an average summer temp of 94 for 15 years. It was worth it though, my parents employer was paying for our permanent residency. I think it ended up being 40-60k or some stupid amount. having been here 17 years, I am only a few years away from being able to apply for citizenship, having got my permanent residency 3 years ago and living in the country since I was two. Gotta love the system! At least when it's all over I will be able to live anywhere in Europe or the U.S.Quote:

Rant over.
good fucking god, no thank you. 300 a month? I cant even afford my $75 a month bill
There's a reason Houston's population stayed under 100k until the 30sQuote:

Late in the week, the models are advertising a huge cool off for east of the divide and possibly some snow for the mountains.
Dusting of snow on Quandary this morning.... :D
holy shit tons of precip these last few days. Yesterday was a balmy 54 most all the day and a nice soaking drizzle all day. Last night was an awesome thunderstorm and more really good rain. Sunny and 65 today, woohoo!!!
i love when it rains/storms at night. i get the best sleep.
big cool off down here in the bubble for Thursday-Saturday. Highs only in the mid 60s, and lows will dip back into the 40s for the first time in months.
yessir... same here with the raining/storms at night. gonna snow in the mountains those days i do believe
woohoo!!!!
HOly shit! Biggest hail I have ever seen just started comming down in Breck. Hope everyone has their cars inside.
Yesterday riding my bike to the market at about 7:30 pm was the first time I've been cold in a few months. Yay Winter.
"SOME SNOW WILL BE MIXED WITH THE RAIN ABOVE 10500 FEET...
WITH LOCAL ACCUMULATIONS UP TO TWO INCHES POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT."
OK, it can stop raining now. My new trees are in a fucking lake in my backyard.
yeah, my new grass seed is floating, and i am testing the fortitude of the retaining wall i just built for the garden...
LL Pass and part of Trail Ridge Road were closed earlier. 9news said TRR had 6" of snow on the ground :eek:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand
it started again
enough with this stupid rain already
Tabernash had about 2" by 9am yesterday, the mountains had a good bit more...:biggrin: but it's just a tease.
if by "tease" you mean "legit powder day in august," then yes, it was a tease - http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/s...9&postcount=25Quote:

you guys need to get out more. that rain we had was what it's like in the PNW a great deal of the time
which is why i don't live in the PNW. We had about 3 days of non-stop rain/drizzle, and I was ready for it to stop and be sunny again.Quote:

I just woke up to see two inches on the ground outside my house..
talk by Howard and the Dweebs that La Nina may be making a return this winter. Though it would not look like last winter with a bit more subtropical moisture steered into the cold air :fm:
i forget... is la nina good or bad?
Accumulating snow looks likely this weekend at the pass level, with a strong shortwave for sometime later next week.
Last year was a La Nina year, I'll let you decide if was good or bad in COQuote:

1, 2, 3. Doo it.
woooohooooo
if you look at the historical numbers, largely CO is nina/nino neutral -with some favorable/unfavorable variance regionally -Quote:

It was damn cold up above Loveland Pass this morning- wind chill around 20, methinks. A-Basin's WROD was looking pretty solid from above- I predict that if any of the snow comes this weekend, they'll open by the 17th.
strong SW flow this weekend, cold temps, and little moisture. Next week looks dry and warmer, at least thru midweek.
need more cold
