White gold, Denver tea..... snow!!

Yeah, it's pretty crappy here. I didn't take any pictures of my own, because there was no way in hell I was leaving the house (17.5 inches of snow in 12 hours), so here's some articles for you.

My Way News
The Denver Post

For those of you new to the Denver area, let me explain our seasons to you.

November, December, March and April are our winter months.
January, February and May are our Spring months.
June, July, August and September are summer.
October is autumn.

It's kinda screwy, but you get used to it. And if you don't believe me when I say Colorado weather is weird, here's the weather we've had since last Wednesday:


Thursday   -   Upper 60's
Friday      -     Lower 70's
Saturday   -   Mid 60's
Sunday      -   Woke up at 7:30 am to 14 inches of snow.
Monday      -   17.5 inches of snow, clear skies
Tuesday      -   High is the 60's
Wednesday   -   High in the 70's

The down side to this is we NEVER get work closures. Even if there's five feet of snow on the ground at 8 AM, it will melt off by noon. Which is why I am severly unmotivated today at work....
