We caught a little snow here in Rochester… a dusting.
Denver, meanwhile is trying for the title of “The New Buffalo”…
DENVER —AP- A second storm in a week pounded Colorado, dumping more than 2 feet of snow in the foothills and forcing the cancellation of hundreds of flights and the closure of highways and government offices on Friday. The storm covered an area stretching from the Rocky Mountains into the western Plains. The National Weather Service said it could buffet the region with wind gusts up to 45 mph, whipping heavy snow into blinding whiteouts. Denver could get 18 inches of snow by Friday morning.
They’re not even awake out there yet, but the accumulator is showing they got precisely what they’re looking for.
Wow. Skiing down I25. (Chuckle)

Such frivolity on such a serious subject. The critical question this year, as every year is which city, Buffalo, Rochester, or Syracuse, wiil win the annual Hnnorablw William Johnson Snow Derby. Right now, Rochester is stuck in third, and last place. According to this morning’s fish wrapper, Rochester has had five inches of snow, Syracuse twelve and Buffalo, thirty-two, albeit all in just one storm. Call FEMA now.

Yes, well, there’s a reason behind that frivolity…
We’re about to blame man-induced Global warming for something as mundane as a two feet snowfall in Denver, at the end of September…. as if such a thing was at all unusual.
