It's Snowing!

Scooby Doo — Sun, 25 Oct 2020 14:47:55 GMT

Arrrgggh. It's going to be a long lonely winter. A couple of days ago it was in the 70's and I was outside painting the carport. This morning it's snowing. The older I get the more I dislike winter. I can't afford to be a snowbird or else I would go to Arizona. With the spike in Covid I'll be spending most of my time in solitary confinement in my house. I'm starting the countdown until April.

Snowing here too. No complaints- live in Colorado and we need this for the fires burning. The freezing temps. that came with this front..... well, could do without that !!

For the first time this fall, I went out to make sure the hummer nectar wasn't frozen. Winter is coming fast.

Yes, Colorado definitely needs the snow. Hoping the fires are out soon.

@violet runner another Coloradan! Same as you, not thrilled with the temps but let's hope the mountains get a lot of snow to help put out the horrific fires.

And I just saw on our local news that the US will have a mild winter with above normal temps and less precipation. So much for that. A couple of weeks ago, Fall arrived right on schedule for us which was unusual. It was so nice to turn of the AC and open the windows and get that nice, refreshing cooler air. It didn't last long. We've been almost in the 80's with high humidity for some time now and I'm tired of it.

We saw quite a temperature change yesterday. Friday was 80 and yesterday was a high of 50. Not complaining. I love the colder weather just not ready for Winter yet though.

Another happy dance for snow here in Boulder, CO! More cold, more snow is what we need to reduce our wildfires and smoky air.

I'm in Arizona and it's still in the high 80's and frankly I'm sick of it. After having 150 days of over 100 degrees I would love to see rain, snow and cold.

I live in Arvada CO so yes we need the snow to help with the fires. Not crazy over the freezing cold either but keep the snow coming!

We, in the Albuquerque area, are expecting some snow Monday night and we're absolutely elated. We desperately need the moisture and the accompanying cold will be a welcome change from the hot summer and fall we've had. Bring it on!

@Meowingkitty . Are you expecting cooler weather with this cold front that is moving through Co. and NM?

Agree. Every spring I'm so glad to turn off the heat and get some fresh air in the house.

I live in Colorado as well and am so excited to have snow. Please Let it help all the huge fires we have and give a break to all our firefighters.

Snowshoe Resort in WV is seeing the first snow flurries today. On the lowest southern edge of the state our high today is 41 and breezy. Our expected low tonight is 38, and we may wake up to flurries tomorrow.

Snowed all day today in MA, eastern MA anyway. It was freezing cold too. Beautiful to look at but it's too early for this type of weather, It looks like December outside.

The older I get the less I like winter, not many nice snows, Just a few inches with some ice mostly here in central Pennsylvania. Dark gloomy days. Not looking forward to winter, would move if I could.
