Springtime in the Rockies
We've had quite the change in weather this week. On Monday afternoon it was 60.7° F (15.9° C) at my house. This morning when I took this snowy photo in the front yard it was -1.5° F (-18.6° C) here. That's a drop of over 62° F (34° C) in just over a day!
Luckily it's going to warm up quickly again. But it makes for a fun Skywatch Friday weather story!

Gotta love the weather in the plains! I grew up in South Dakota so I know exactly what you mean. I see my hometown got slammed with snow today! I'm happy it stays up in the mountains around here.
ReplyDeleteHi Al,

Wonderful shot of snow filled field.
ReplyDeleteI'm to the point of thinking I am never going to be able to put my winter clothes away! It was 3 degrees on the way to school yesterday. Warmer today, but still chilly. Enjoy our beautiful sun.♥♫
ReplyDeleteHola amigo. Ahi tenéis nieve pero al menos veis el sol, en Galicia no ha dejado de llover y desde que comnezo la primavera aun no he visto un rayo de sol.Bonitas fotos.Bikiños
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe how quickly the weather dropped!!! So nice that it starting to warm up again today!!! Only in Colorado. Nice picture.

ReplyDeleteWow it looks like a river with that sand color, how beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe snow looks wind blown. That would make it a very nasty time to be outside. Great morning shot!
ReplyDeleteA great shot! We are expected get another blast of winter tonight.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that like April all over? You never know what to expect but even April will have to settle down one day.
ReplyDeleteMinus 18 C IS cold! This is a gorgeous shot.

Our son just sent a photo of their snow-covered yard (near Boulder). I thought he meant it was taken today (Monday), so I guess it's still winter at your house too.
ReplyDeleteMolto bello questo effetto di sabbia azzurra...
