Springtime in the Rockies

Well folks, hope you enjoyed a beautiful Mother's Day today as our summer sneak-peak appears to be short-lived. Some pretty wild forecasts are getting thrown around for an approaching storm system due in midweek. Many foothill locations (Castle Rock, Genesee, Evergreen) have already been placed under a winter storm watch where upwards of 18 inches of snow is expected. For Denver, the forecast remains very uncertain. We can all hope that temperatures will stay warm enough Tuesday night keep us as all rain, but the potential exists for rain to turn to snow and for the city to see a wet whopping of snow.

There are about seven months a year that I would be SUPER pumped right about now. May is not one of them. In the last week trees have leafed like "woah" --- and the potential for a heavy, wet snow means we should brace for quite some damage. With that, break out the shovels and the brooms... and hope for rain!
