Winter Blast
We had a warm, sunny winter. But spring has seen snow, the most recent on Friday night and Saturday, when about 8 inches (20 cm) fell in our neighborhood.
It's been cold too, with temperatures falling to 23 °F (-5 °C) Saturday night. But it does make for some pretty scenes.
It's already mostly melted and hopefully winter won't make another return, although snow in May isn't unusual at our elevation of 7,100 feet (2,164 meters) above sea level. And that's a cold entry for Our World Tuesday.

ReplyDeleteThat's spring in the Rocky Mountains for you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenes but perhaps not in May.
ReplyDeleteI posted about the Colorado snow of the past week...on the western slope, where my sister lives.
ReplyDeleteWhen she told me it was snowing, I wasn't surprised. I remember when I lived there for nearly 50 years, we had picnics in the Rockies on the 4th of July....in snow!!
Weather is weird everywhere ~ lovely photography of the snow ~ thanks,
ReplyDeleteHappy Week to you ~ ^_^
We got about four inches of snow last night and this morning, but it is melting off fast.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful winter captures.

ReplyDeleteThe cold has its drawbacks but at least it gives us beautiful images with the snow that it brings.
It's a cold day today. It will be about 16 degrees. To find that snow I would have to travel 100 kilometers.

oh my.... still snow. I am so happy to enjoy sunny 20+ C today. and you say sometimes snow on the 4th of July!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. I love spring snow...
ReplyDeleteBrrrr (although I'm sure it is gone by now.) When they first moved to Colorado I used to call our kids when I read about some weird weather happening -- and they always told me "oh it's cleared up by now".
ReplyDeleteGorgeous snow pictures, Al!
