Thursday was a cold, wet day here in Colorado.  The temps didn’t make it out of the 30s and we had a rain/freezing rain/snow mixture falling all day.  Toward the afternoon, the precipitation turned over to all snow, but it was very light and didn’t stick as the ground was still to warm.  Since it didn’t stick, it doesn’t count at the official first snow of the season.

Last night another cold front moved in to the region, after a day of highs in the 50s.  It started to snow maybe around 9pm last night after the temperature plummeted 10* in about 45 minutes.  Not only was it snowing, but it was sticking!  The first snow of the season is always very exciting!!  When we left home at 9:30 this morning we had 1.5″ of snow!  It’s continued to snow off and on all day, but I don’t think we’ve had much more accumulation.  Yet, it’s a very nice showing for the first snow!

I love this weather!
