Yep, dropping to southern Colorado too. We're supposed to have 3 days of single digit highs. Wolf Creek Ski Area (west of me about 120 miles) is looking to get up to 6 feet of snow. Eek

One can only hope for and extended forecast of -40 to get rid of all the new residents from who knows where. Send them all back to were they came from Wink

Saw that Bald1! Glad I am in the 'banana belt' of the Hills. Typically warmer or cooler than the rest of the Hills, depending upon the season.
Hope we get moisture in any form! Definitely need it!!!

Jim,
They're saying light fluffy crystals which means low water content sadly. Not the heavy wet white stuff. Oh well....

Yeah, looks like our chinook is coming to an end as well.

It's been in the 40s and 50s here lately. Finally got the ice on the driveway melted.

Agreed! We can use the moisture in any form and a lot of it.

As far as the change in temperature goes, if we don't have a 40 to 60 degree change in temp at least once or twice, we haven't had winter. Big Grin

I think this coming winter I will stay in Yuma Arizona.

I guess I will need to buy a sun shovel for all that liquid sunshine. Big Grin

Yep, we're getting it a few days later.

High of 70 on Monday and 60 on Tuesday, then a high of 28 with ~3" of ice/snow on Wednesday into Thursday.

I don't know how low low got, overnight, but it was 10°F and blowing like stink out there this morning when I got up.

Brrrr!

Reviewing the surveillance cam footage from overnight: The wind blowing the snow around out there was actually occasionally triggering some of the motion-activated lights. I've never seen that before.

Better stock up on Redbreast, put on some good music, get a good fire going and ride this one out. Razz
