Denver snowstorm - The Orange Mane

Dagmar · 12-21-2011, 07:06 PM

Off topic I know, but this is ridiculous. It started at 5pm and it's already piling up badly. Expecting 6 - 14 inches. Boulder County is getting 2 inches an hour, Loveland, Boulder are now on high accident alert.

2 hours ago from twitter -

Be careful out there people.

(cue the Californians...)

I was in Denver at a doc appt for my mom. Got out of there about 445. I-25 was fun all the way to Springs.

Que · 12-21-2011, 07:16 PM

You guys can't use it. Send it back up here

OrangeSe7en · 12-21-2011, 07:16 PM

Uh oh. Anyoner remember October of 1997? We need Terrell Davis to carry the rock 40 times.

RhymesayersDU · 12-21-2011, 07:31 PM

I'm at DIA, shockingly they say my flight is still on time. But it is piling up.

Kaylore · 12-21-2011, 07:33 PM

We got home from the hospital with time to buy some things before it really started coming down. It's brutal outside.

Dagmar · 12-21-2011, 07:34 PM

almost 3 inches since 5pm in Morrison

WABronco · 12-21-2011, 07:34 PM

I get to work outside in that **** tomorrow and Friday. Hot damn.

edog24 · 12-21-2011, 07:36 PM

It's dumping in Boulder, I gave up shoveling and started drinking instead.

ak1971 · 12-21-2011, 07:38 PM

I love big dumps

lonestar · 12-21-2011, 07:39 PM

48 degrees in EL Paso but might snow on friday.

I'm retired so could give a crap..

Once I left Denver and moved to Syracuse NY I found out what snow was..

Christmas eve 1979 between midnite and 0600 23.5" not counting drifted snow..

Roads were passable by 1100..

Had enough of that crap moved to LA the next summer and have never looked back..

Now in ELP and although we are going into Monsoon season right now (just in time for the "Sun Bowl").

Glad it is Y'all and not me, be safe on those roads..

Swedish Extrovert · 12-21-2011, 07:41 PM

Taking off work and going to Copper tomorrow.

Goobzilla · 12-21-2011, 07:43 PM

Just starting to hit in the "W". I'm not going anywhere until sometime Friday fire up the Keurig and play Xbox until then.

Garcia Bronco · 12-21-2011, 07:51 PM

Started snowing in Florence about 8pm, got about 3 inches or so since then. Still coming down. Can't see street lights 50 feet away from my window. Damn you, Sangre De Cristos...Damn you.

The fact that I can tell that first car is a Subaru, means that isn't that bad a storm.

Dagmar · 12-21-2011, 11:06 PM

That was taken 30 minutes after the snow started. I get it, your in Canada.

Armchair Bronco · 12-22-2011, 01:18 AM

Damn, I really miss Denver (and Boulder) winters.

Out here in Seattle, we'll get an epic ice storm every 3 years or so, and maybe some slushy snow now and then. But it's hard to beat the REAL winter storms that Denver and the surrounding areas get year in and year out.

I'm jealous.
