I'm in Colorado . It's been great the last two days , in the 60's . It's going to be 70 tomorrow and saturday . Then ...... We're going to get a major dumper of a snow storm saturday night , through sunday , and on into monday . I've heard estimates ranging from 12" to 30" total accumulation . (Sigh) . I thought we were over the hump . I was going to plant veggies in the garden and do some yard work . I am getting a bit sick of winter .

I live in Michigan. It went from the 30's to nearly 80 degrees this week! Yeah, it was amazing. But today it dropped back to the 40's... 🙁 I think God is teasing us!

Woah! I didn't know there were any other Colorado people here. Well Moldy Crow, I too am from Colorado, and look forward to the coming weather. I always enjoyed snow during spring, because it's often followed by a nice mild day. Not to hot, not to cold. Wonderful weather.

Which part of Colorado do you live in?

Rhode Island may as well check in here. We got lots of snow last month, and it finally warmed up to the 40's and poured rain for days. Floods, roads washing out on the sides and 9 inch deep pot holes.

We are going to get more heavy rain this weekend, and since the ground is already sturated it will probably flood again.

Better than snow! 😉

Wow, still surprised there are two of us, let alone three. I'm in Arvada, a suburb NW of Denver. Right next to the foothills. So it seems I'm not going to get it as bad as you will, but snow is Loveland is good for skiing.

Oh! Right! I pass through there all the time when I have to visit a relative in Ft. Collins. I always think of skiing when I hear Loveland.

I'm ready for the snow, I love the stuff. And the hatches are permanently batted down.

Hey , Fatty , how much snow you guys get down there ? We got 8" of the really wet heavy stuff . Lot's of trees down . I'm kind of surprised we've still got power .

We are around 13" at the moment, and still coming down, not as hard though. Also the wet and heavy stuff, and I got the short straw and had to go shake out the trees...Bah! We have power, as is shown by the fact that I am here. Not easy to go out at the moment, which means more time for RHP! Boy, I wish I coulda had time like this during my absense.
