Heh. Having grown up just outside of Denver myself (Arvada), I can recollect many times when the weather changed like that in a matter of hours. It’d be beautiful in the morning, and then cold as heck before the sun was ready to set. Definitely something I don’t miss about sunny SoCal.
Such are the joys of middle America, where you don’t have pesky things like large bodies of water to attenuate fast moving climate systems.
I’ll take your snowy. We’ve had no snow to speak of, and it would kill some of the 5000-count pollen days we’ve been having lately. [Oddly enough, my allergies were bad a couple weeks ago, not now.]
It’s about time! I was starting to get nervous, I didn’t want ski season to end early. 🙂

Alex goes to look up the word “attenuate“.
Always glad to broaden a horizon or two. 😉
You know what they say; “if you don’t like the weather in Colorado wait 10 minutes.”
