All of the California storms have been hitting Colorado’s high country leaving the front range dry & windy. Yesterday was really not supposed to be any exception. All of the weather reports called for a slight chance of flurries with little or no accumulation. So, when I left for work I only took with me a down vest, scarf and lightweight gloves. When I left the office at 5:00pm there was 1″ of snow on my car and it was still coming down. When I finished brushing off the windows, they were already covered again. Glad to see my efforts paid off. Surprisingly, the drive home was not that bad. It was slower than normal of course, but I didn’t hit any ice until I was very near our house. However, when I got home and let the dog out she decided she needed to chase a rabbit down the street and I had to “run” after her without killing myself by slipping on ice. Needless to say, she got put in the box for a good duration last night. Also, since the roads were getting worse and the snow was still coming down we chose not to drive the extra 20+ miles to our bible study in Arvada. By the time we went to bed there was 3″ of fresh snow on the ground. I didn’t mind the snow of course, but it did come as a surprise. Also, don’t forget you can check our snow accumulation totals for this season!
