Colorado is a Mother...
Happy Mother's Day (after)!
Exactly a 2 months ago, NOS88 posted a complaint about Pennsylvania weather. I wonder if he's still worried about snow?
Anchorage, AK is warmer today than Denver and isn't under a "Winter" storm warning! Stupid state!

We had a day like that too, in December.

The amazing thing is that we have this weather today here in Co. (snowing right now) but we have already had many mid 70's+ sunny day's as well. I think it has even been in the 80's a few times.

A couple pics of my commute this morning - May 12, 2014. You can tell this is Colorado because I have a cracked windshield. 
This is near Arapahoe & I-25 this morning about 8:15 AM. I fully admit to being a wimp and driving my nice warm car today.
I remember thinking last weekend that it was time to take off my snow tires but I was glad I waited this morning.

Within the Colorado State Symbol is the phrase "Et non erit sine arma ventum rimas".

high of 84 today, currently 76, in the East Bay of San Francisco. already been out for a couple of hours. absolutely beautiful!
BTW, i had to ride on my gifted women's three speed in stuff like that a number of times in the winter of '83. don't worry, it'll be 80 again and the road's will steam for a couple of days before you know it.

Heard about snow in Denver on CNN last night and I ended up having a dream that it snowed here. There was a line right across the road. Rainy and 60 degrees on one side. Snowing and 59 (or something dumb like that) on the other. Then the dream changed and I was going snow boarding or skiing with a group of friends. Of course I was completely underdressed because it's May for cripes sake. Was worried whether I could make it through the afternoon without falling. At least I was wearing pants unlike a lot of dreams I have.
There was a point to this post but don't remember what it was.
