I saw snow on Mt. Sneffels a month ago, course I had to hike up a 14,000 footer to get to it. Year round snow on some of the peaks here in Co. Cant wait for it to really start gettin cold here.

Hey Sierraben, sounds like you are up in the nosebleed section! I dont think Oakland was even that high when I lived there.

When I first saw this thread this morning, I thought about replying, but decided to stay out. While I knew that same system was headed this way, and was going to generate some rain, my jaw hit the floor when my daughter said that it was starting to snow. The rain turned to snow this afternoon (we're just a shade under 5k feet here). Nothing stuck to the roads/pavement, but there was enough to cover the grass.

I don't know what it will do in CO, but here this storm was dropping snow down to 5k feet. Clearly fall is in the air.

When have we gotten too much? The past few winters have been bad winters (and Im speaking from a snowmobiler's perceptive, so by "bad" Im mean not much snow and cold).
Im looking to move to NE Wisconsin in a few years so that I can live in a place that gets MORE snow and cold.
Too much snow??? Theres no such thing!
