April (Snow) Showers
Having lived in California for the first 30 years of my life, I’m still adjusting to Colorado weather. Although we had a fairly nice March, I was warned that April, and even May, can be unpredictable. Well, it turns out we’ve had two snowstorms already in April! One aspect of the weather here that is particularly interesting (or exasperating) is that the forecasts are generally not very accurate. The weather forecasts as of a few days ago were predicting a blizzard, but when the storm turned up yesterday and today, it didn’t turn out to be too bad. I took the top photo from my back door earlier today. As you can see from the bottom picture, it doesn’t compare at all to the blizzard we had back in October.
