Pretty good snow storm today in the Rockies. Only a few inches buildup; the warm ground melted a lot of it before things cooled down.

Wow, already! It's only 50 degrees here in Western Missouri this morning. I was close to heat exhaustion last week working outside, quick change to jacket weather.

Nooooooo!

YESSSSS!

Monday it was 94 F, this morning 28F and most of a foot of hard snow overnight. Couple of hummingbirds was still here yesterday during the storm. I got up early this morning to put out food for it. Our high altitude (Broadtail) hummingbirds can stand a surprising amount of cold.

Good friend lives in Alamosa Colorado. Sent me these two pics this morning. Heavy wet snow which is very rare for them.

My son is in Steamboat Springs. Haven't heard if they got any. I know temperatures were warm early this week and also freeze warnings. Jon

My son lives in Craig Colorado but works in Steamboat. Colorado has a good road condition web site with a lot of cameras. It looks like they closed Rabbit Ears Pass for a while.
