Dare I say it? Forecast calling for 3-6" of snow starting Sunday night into Monday..more north and west of the city , and also to the south of us in the mountain areas.
Uh-oh.
Why am I suddenly filled with a sense of dread? Well less than two weeks ago we were hit with a quick moving but pretty intense little storm ,while not depositing a lot of snow caused , iced up the roads enough to cause 100s of problems. The city seemed to be paralyzed but a combination of cold, snow icing roads and the ever present WIND...
One video of cars sliding, wheels locked and helpless, into car ..after car. after car went viral. The phrase " oh sh*t here comes another one" was heard again and again.IF nothing else. some enterprising physics teacher could use that video to demonstrate some well know principles of speed, mass, velocity and collisional energy. Of course this being the YOU TUBE era, the video was quickly edited to include the ubiquitous BENNY HILL music. Sweeeet.
OK southern Colorado.. here we go again. Snow is coming. Watch your speed...watch your distance. Give yourself plenty of room..be PATIENT.. no need to rush. Just watch yourself and others. and let's see of we can avoid being a viral video this time.
BRING ON THE SNOW!
