Where's winter?

This was the first real snow we have had out here in CO and none of it hit the mountains...it was a "Front Range" storm. I would agree with you...where is winter?? It has been warm and very dry here until this last storm.

Not sure where in CO you are, but I wouldn't call this the first real snow in Denver. We were at a record (cumulative) snowfall at some point in December. Granted, January was pretty dry and I'll agree that the mountains are definitely lacking.

About 18 inches of snow in my yard, though with the crazy wind and drifting snow, the front yard had about 6 inches and the north side of my house had about 3 feet. I went to go shovel the driveway and got a little distracted with a side project...
