Spring Snow Storm Thurs 3/14/24

We have gotten our Spring snow here in Colorado, in the southwest metro Denver area we've received about a foot with about that same amount coming later today.

 

Time to get out and shovel!  I keep saying this, better do it ha.

 

Here's the snow so far.  Lots of weighted down branches on other trees not visible in the pic, lots of trees down in the area.

 

Anyone else with snow today?

@rockygems123     It sure is beautiful to see, but I feel bad for you.  Hopefully, it won't last too long and springtime will finally come your way.💝

Wow @rockygems123 that's a serious snow storm! Be safe out there when you are shoveling especially if there are branches coming down.

 

Here in NJ we had a March snow storm a few years ago. Heavy wet snow. It broke trees/branches off and took the power lines with them. I could hear the crack as they broke under the weight & called my brother to ask him to be careful if he was outside too.  Don't need a branch to fall on you.

 

We were w/o power for 4 days and since we didn't have a generator, that meant no heat, no water. It was a mess & got darn cold in the house. I went to bed wearing a coat with my two cats.

We had tornado warnings last night which is early for Kansas. We ended up with lots of rain instead which we needed but I always freak out since I don't have a basement and have lots of pets.

 

CO does have weird weather esp when I listen to Marla Wynne on hsn who lives there.

Colorado Springs got a lot of snow, too. It's like cement when you go and try to shovel it! Took me most of the morning to clear my drive and walks. Got a good workout though.

 

More snow is coming later, they are saying.

 

Thanks for starting this thread. @rockygems123

It's actually a winter storm since Spring doesn't start till next week. It does look pretty though.

Oh my goodness!!  It's 77 and sunny here in upstate SC!   Reminds me how large our country really is and how different regions are from one another.  That is a beautiful snowfall, but the dangerous kind in weighing down the trees.  We are in big trouble when we see one like that in SC, power outages will be widespread and long.  Stay safe you guys.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.
