So will this be a first borne child? Maybe a sacrifice would be in orderQuote:

34 degrees at 8800' and snowing right now. It looks like it's a balmy 29 @ 11300', which equates to some wet snow falling on top of a mostly faceted base.
Be careful out there.
it's slowly turning from graupel to snow in frisco, pretty interesting.
30 @ 8k and flurries this morning....at least it isn't sunny.....or raining
Fifty five degrees here in Ridgway, the warmest Dec. ever!
The 16 snowflakes from the morning, plus the 47 snowflakes in the last 10 minutes are really starting to add up... better put my windshield wipers up.
Sitting in brutal traffic on 70 just West of Georgetown. Some decent snow bands coming through interspersed with bursts of sun.
sunny and 45 in Edwards....super warm and nice day
8-14 day outlook... Shhhhhhhhhhhh
Rontele just said the same thing....the map I see still shows below average...is it just that it isn't predicted to be as below average? Map still shows wicked warm temps for that period so I won't hold my breath...but it's the little things we cling to I suppose.
Pretty much, but the change between the 6-10 and 8-14 day is trending in the right direction.Quote:

so it's dry and it normally doesn't recover to even get to average....
That article has the "Drama Drama DRAMA" headline and then goes on to say the S. Platte basin is 84% of average. How dire is that? Fact is average years in CO have weeks where the resort skiing sucks. Slightly below average isn't as good, but seems kinda right in the range of "normal" and "should be expected" if you live in CO. I love deep pow, too, but I've skied nice powder snow 4 of the 6 days I've skied this year and Colorado resorts actually kick-ass at making snow. Amazing how much terrain is open for a 18 inch base, or whatever. [/End self-talk to be excited about spending next week in Copper w/ the fam]Quote:

I learned a new term today from a North Dakotan (?)...Snirt.. a mix of snow and dirt. Today, I got snirtshots.
Holy Windfuck, Batman. I caught several 50mph+ gusting snirtshots to the grill today.
Cant fix thatQuote:
