Early morning snow in Denver
As expected, it’s not quite up to “5-8 inches” as expected… yet. There is certainly more to the storm but the forecasts now expect “snow mist” and “snow dusting” from here on out. Waking up to an inch or two doesn’t spell “snowpocalypse” as much as the weather forecasters would have liked you to believe […]
A note on forecasts: the early forecasts in the Denver area can usually be halved. Besides, all the snow should stay in the mountains!
