Hardly any in west HR. I'd call it a dusting.

Really? Wow - I'd have thought you'd have more than we do....closer to the foothills and all....

We just got tons and tons of rain - which at this point, I'd rather have. It tried to snow a few times.

We're in a weird vortex here. After we moved here we said it seemed like we were in a doughnut hole. Snow always went around us. Then the newspaper actually did an article about the phenomenon and it made sense! We are just barely far enough away from the foothills to not get the snow like Boulder, but not far enough to get it like Weld county.

LOL - we say that about rain during the summer. We can see it west of us....my coworker who lives in Lone Tree gets it...but it seems to hit I-25 and stop...we're lucky to get our deck wet! Oh well....I was glad to have the moisture. I had errands to run last night and it was really really sloppy out. Pretty this morning though. Roads are clear and dry and the sun is out....

Yes, I'm going to try and walk the dog today since it's not looking good for tomorrow!

Okay I admit I didn't read the thing you were quoting when you posted the above.

Taking it out of context, I thought you were telling us that your neighbor and your son fell off the stairs into a boot, and that we should look in our shoes for your neighbor and your son.

Images of Rick Moranis fiddling with dials, and kids riding carpenter ants floated through my mind.

Wow! Snow! Last week it was warm down there and only 38 degrees here. Now you have snow and it's warm and sunny here!

That's hillarious! Thanks for the laugh! I found her neighbor and her son in the bottom of my garbage can!

It's 64 degrees outside today. Sunny. Got into the low 50's last night. All of us thin-blooded, desert-dwellers, dug out the extra blankets (boxes in the garage), found our long pants (back of the closet) and tried to remember how to turn on the heater.

Haha, you're right! That was poorly worded.
