technically we haven't had a real snow yet in the front range. It was sprinkled and then froze while it was doing that so there was some dust, but it never stuck on the ground...

I have to say, its almost November and no snow yet in CO... weird... :rolleyes:

The ground freezes here generally the week after Christmas.
Last year it never froze at all. Add to that the freeze is a month+ late and strange things are definately happening.
It's hard to see how things are changing when I'm inside all the time. Up till just 2-3 years ago I had a farm, grew fruit treees, and raised lots of animals. You just know "when it's time" for things to happen because you learn over the years. Allows you to schedule your winter work. (Now I live in town and just have a garden and flowerbeds.)
In the last few years on the "farm" I was cleaning mud in chicken coops in January and February. That wasn't right. It screwed up my work schedule, too.
I was planting weeks earlier and last frost came earlier and earlier. I like that part. :)

The one thing that very much concerns me is that here, many, many plants rely on the seeds freezing in order for them to germinate the following year. We also rely on a nice hard nasty winter to killl bugs and animals to keep the populations in check.
If we don't see a hard winter this year, there's gonna be so many turkeys and deer that I won't be able to drive across town without hitting one. Literally. It's really wrong.

I don't know what it means, but things here in my little corner of the world have changed dramatically in the last 10 years. I'd be concerned if it weren't for all the smart people telling me it's all bullshit. :tu

I'm slow after what we have been through the last month or so, but it finally dawned on me what it means with your hint scott.

Thanks:ss

Re: It's snowing!!!

Scott, hate to tell you this, but I just finished a Punch Gran Puro on the front porch, and it's 62 degrees or so.:)

Re: It's snowing!!!

Got a dusting of snow this morning. To the west in Lake Placid area, they got a foot of snow.

Re: It's snowing!!!

Snowing now... has been for a little while.

Re: It's snowing!!!

This morning I had ice and snow to brush off my car. I really need to find a job down south. I hate the snow and cold with a passion.

Re: It's snowing!!!

I would die if it snowed here so early. I had a feeling this would be a bad winter. It rained pretty hard here yesterday. Rained a little today. Cold as hell too.

Wish you were here, my friend.:)

Re: It's snowing!!!

Snowing again, my cars covered. Last night we got about 2 inches, but the ground melted it as soon as it it.

girrmumblesonofagrumblegirr

I just moved from the phoenix to kansas city and it is friggen COLD here I cant wait to go back to the desert.

Re: It's snowing!!!

Nothing here. :c

I love the snow and I'd really like it for the snow to start flying for deer season. Plus I gotta try out the new truck in the slippery stuff.

Our hanging baskets and bedding flowers lasted until the 19th of October.
In all my life they have never lasted past September 20th.
So it was nice when it lasted. We had the best spring and summer I've seen in a lot of years, and the garden came in at a 10. Rain was plentiful and at perfect intervals, temperature stayed up nicely, and I can't think of a single complaint except that the kids never used the City Pool pass I bought. :)

Did it snow where you guys are yet?
For the record, it snowed here earlier today so I suppose officially the first snow was on Oct 28th.

I'm in Sussex Borough NJ and yes we got snow. High Point (7 miles away) got six inches and I heard the pocono mtns got a foot.

Re: It's snowing!!!

Here in Colorado Springs there hasn't been any snow. In fact, it's been in the 70s for the last week. I've been enjoying mild evenings on the deck smoking cigars with Mrs Brew.
