Here we go again...

Although an extremely dry first couple of months in 2009, winter has finally showed up here in April. Gotta love springtime in the Rockies!

Its going, going, gone...

Well the latest spring snow storm is over. Pretty disappointing storm. Came and went quickly leaving lots of ice and little actual snow accumulation. Roads in the morning (Thursday) will be icy until the sun starts warming things up. By tomorrow night this storm will be nothing but a distant memory =)

In other weather news, the storm for Saturday is tracking further to the north than originally predicted so don't expect any huge blizzard for Saturday. Areas in north/northeastern El Paso County will still get some wind and snow but the majority of C/S will miss out on the bulk of the storm. I like trying my hand at this whole meteorology thing because I probably get it right as much as the actual meteroligists.

Here is a picture from last weeks' blizzard:

Here are some snow totals from this past weekends unexpected blast of winter weather. I had a total of roughly 14 inches at my house in Black Forest.

Running in the rain

So this morning my buddy Chad and I ran 15 miles...in the rain. We were both drenched to the core but it really wasn't all that bad. Here are a couple of videos!

Hail Storm

My run tonight was rained out...or should I say hailed out. Some of the hail was over 1" in diameter!
