Snow Falling in Colorado on Eve of Northern Hemisphere’s Summer Solstice
The calendar says summer starts tomorrow in the Northern Hemisphere. The snow falling in the mountains of Colorado tells a different story. A storm that has prompted a tornado watch across Nebraska and Kansas today also left 2 to 4 inches of snow in the Rocky Mountains, said Joe Ramey, a weather service meteorologist in Grand Junction, Colorado.
“It is unusual,” Ramey said. “Here it is the last day of spring.” ***

Hopefully it will keep snowing right through summer so we get a very early jump on next season.
:lol:

What's typical for A-Basin? Is this way beyond normal?

I'm about to just crank down the AC and sit on the couch with my ski boots on so I can relive some memories :lol:
