Oh look. It's May 13 and still dumping snow.
Hello up there? Maybe you didn't hear us last week, or the week before ... or the week before. We said, "Enough snow, already!"
Here it is mid-May and again, it looks like February out there. We had about six inches in East Vail this morning and our field spies tell us there's a foot of snow on the ground halfway up Copper Mountain. Plus ... it's still dumping.
Sure, we realize we live in the Colorado mountains, and we don't mind the sporadic spring/summer snowstorm. We even found them kind of exciting ... back when they were a novelty.
Seriously, though. We want spring and warm weather. We're worried enough about potential flooding from the existing snow. We really don't need any more. Save it for November. Please.
But alas, our imploring does no good. The flakes are just getting bigger out there and according to the forecast, it's not going to end (this time around) until Thursday.
Great.
