LMAO

He'll call you, maybe. DC is a smooth talking heartbreaker. :)

No lie, I’m excited to call and ask for Denver Chief.

He's really good at reading Miranda rights. Ask him to do it for you.

Living in southeast Aurora, think last I saw it was 8-14 inches….

Can’t see it sticking around long as the temps have warmed up the past few days

I don’t swing that way.

Unless I’m stuck on Speer.

User doxxed himself. Mods cleanup plz

Just wait until Zach gets on the phone and she decides to try and jump after talking to him for just 5 minutes. :LOL:

It will be a "slush bath" for sure. 37 will be the high on Thursday and Fri will be 43.

It was about this time of year in 2003 that I remember walking right down the middle of Speer in 36" of snow. I had just moved from Costa Rica for a contract banking gig and was living in the Residence Inn at Speer and Zuni. Walked right down the hill on Speer, across the bridge, and right into downtown. Right down the middle of the street in waist-deep snow. Not a single car moving anywhere.

That one completely shut the city down for 2 or 3 days. You know it's a bad one when it shuts Denver completely down for a few days.

I do. Hit me up officer.

I’m in Colorado Springs and they are calling for like 15”. Thankfully I’m GTFO tomorrow morning.

5 years ago I was here for some ridiculous ass snowstorm. Barely made it in and got stuck in the hotel.

I’m waiting till June next ****ing time.

Badge bunny

I hope this weather will make the Bronco's even worse than they already are.

:)

They have nice training facilities.

And here I thought the Denver forecast was going to be stormy with lot's of fail.

:D

I remember that one. That was big.

My general rule of thumb:

Less than 10 inches - business as usual
10 to 19 inches - stuff slows down a little
20 to 29 inches - everything bogs down and stops for a little while
30+ inches - shutdown

Buffaloes and Broncos suck

Haha. Yeah I remember that storm. They are saying this one is very similar to that one.

According to the local forecast we are in that weird zone where we could get a ton of snow or very little. Typically we don’t get hit with as much snow/hail where I am in comparison to other parts of the city.

The "rule" is Mother's Day, actually.

That’s pretty accurate. Our rule of thumb for planting (or at least moving outside) any warm weather plants has been ~ mid May.

A few years ago about this time of year, I was at "Home Depot" in the plant section. It was about 70F. Went to check out and there was a couple in front of me with a flat bed full of flowers. The woman was saying, "I don't see why everyone says winters here are bad!! It's gorgeous out!!"

I asked, "Are you new to Colorado?"

The woman said, "Yes! We just moved from California!!"

I asked if they were planning on planting those flowers into the ground.

"Well, of course silly!!"

I just smiled as the man looked at me with a "Wait, why is he smiling?" look on his face.

Must have been about $400 worth flowers....

Wow Donger.
Nosey and then unhelpful.

If we weren't aleady besties my vagina would retract into my stomach.

Not my fault that neither of them bothered to ask why I asked that. And she was a little snooty as well.

Welcome to Colorado.

Every year we see or hear that from someone, especially on Nextdoor. The ones who have been here long enough know better than to trust these "false Springs". Like clockwork though some will plant something outside during this time of year only to be disappointed when the inevitable snow and cold come back.

Why I go to Lowes.

I just do what Katipan's vagina tells me to do.

Elitist snob.

LMAO

MEAN BOYS

I threw a couple of crackers out for our resident squirrels to help them ride out the storm. My wife also made a cake so we can burrow in for the next couple of days.

That will be handy when I get stranded.
I'm assuming DenverChief can get me to your house.

Also, DC, where does Kyle Clark live?

I'm in the house with the trees in the front yard. And some squirrels.

It’s people like you! We have squirrels come into our backyard all the time and dig up my wife’s flower bulbs and drive our Corgi crazy as they run along the back fence and into a tree in our neighbor’s yard. She swears someone feeds them as they occasionally drop a peanut or two in our yard. They also shred our sunflowers in late summer. You are part of the enabler crowd.

Now saying up to 24" at my location. Yay.

Snowing in Evergreen and I70 is stopped at the tunnel.

I'll be in a well fortified, well supplied, well guarded fortress but I bet I take the train home in the morning.

This storm might actually earn me a day off from work tomorrow, and I'm in KC!

Snow, baby, snow! :D

I stand with the squirrels!

You're going to get cold.

Prolly meant 2.4"

Katipan is coming over, and I'm pretty sure she can handle 8" x 3 at the same time.

I have plenty of ratchet straps.

I don't even know what that means.

Be sure to give it a good tug, "that's not going anywhere" as you talk to no one.

I think you meant to say that to Donger, actually.

Did I...

There are clearly gaps in the citizenship test.

Usually we get the weather coming off the front range here in Scottsbluff. But there's not even any mention of snow the next few days. So what gives? :shrug:

The mountains are going to get dumped on but it's unclear if outside of the foothills it'll amount to anything other than just under a foot. Then when the sun comes out on Friday and Saturday it'll all be gone.

Because snow doesn't like Nebraska. :)

I think it's the reverse cyclone thing and it's going to kick it over to Kansas more than Nebraska.

It's an upslope system coming roughly from east to west, which is how we get our bigger snows. The system gets trapped against the mountains so it doesn't move and dumps on us continuously.

I don't know what happens afterwards in those systems, if the system eventually reverses and moves east or if it just exhausts itself in Colorado. But it may be the latter.

That's my bet. Maybe a foot, but then gone. Our highs both days will be above freezing, and on Friday it'll be well above freezing.

That’s what I expect as well. We already got the call from my children’s school district saying that school was canceled tomorrow despite it being a day off anyways. Thankfully the front of our house faces south so we will get all the sun when it comes back out and it will melt most of the snow that same day. Less shoveling for me!

Just got into Salida for a ski trip to Monarch tomorrow and Friday.


Talk of it being closed. Son on a bitch.

You people be careful out there

It's been snowing for 26 hours and we still have another 10 to go. 🫣

I got 8” last night how about you?

None
😭😭

Do you really need all 8?
A girl can't borrow 4?

I got about 18 inches

I’m up to 15 in the back yard and it’s still dumping in Colorado Springs.

We're done in the metro area.
Hopefully done with winter too.

Monarch kicks ass.

Finished up with 26" at my place. And only one broken limb that I can see so far. They haven't bothered to plow my street yet either.

I ended up with about 2 ft and I'm in the foothills.

Winter officially ends on the 21st, but we'll probably get more snow.

Only got about 10” or so here. About what I was expecting.

Thank you!
Did you know the Chiefs are poised to win their 3rd Super Bowl in a row?

I am aware.

It was closed yesterday, going strong today.

They closed the tubing hill today so little guy is bummed.

He’s a trooper.
