Happy Easter

Happy Easter from Colorado as we are social distancing.

It was 72 degrees yesterday and it’s now 30. We received some snow overnight, enough to cover the pansies.

Snow on Easter Sunday

Don’t move to Denver unless you like snow in May

For those wanting to move to Denver, just now that it is May 9 and the temperature is just over freezing and it’s snowing. It’s been snowing since last night.

It's 38 degrees with snow flurries around
Current weather in the metro Demver area

Spring may show up someone, but we never know.

Oh. It could snow over Fourth of July weekend too. I’ve seen it happen.

The snow is coming, hopefully

The snow is coming Wednesday into Thursday. At least I’m hoping it does. It’s been awhile since we have had a big storm.

This is what Accuweather is predicting for my town.

Let’s hope this materializes.

Snow, freezing temperatures tonight, Tuesday

Tell me about it. I was playing softball and the umpire didn’t stop the game and made us stand out there and freeze. I thought we were going to kill ourselves.

It was so dark we could barely see the ball, the wind was blowing so it was tough to catch the balls that you could see, the bases were so slippery and covered with mud – if you could find the bag you will kill yourself when you slipped on it, and it was so cold and wet that you couldn’t grip the bat.

Well we lost and now I am wet, cold, and miserable.

I am ready to crawl into bed and just get warm. I need something warm to drink.

Anniversary of 2006 Blizzard

Today marks the first annivesary of the first of two blizzards to hit Denver over Christmas last year.  It was plain nasty around here.
I had to pick my sister in-law up from the airport.  It just started to snow on my way there.  It took me 30 minutes to get to the airport and two hours to get home.  It was not a fun day.

The forecast for this year, warm near 50 degrees.  The next chance for snow is tomorrow and it is only for a couple of inches.

We need snow here in Denver, I am just hoping that we don’t get 30+ inches at one time.
