Came up from Centennial about 8:00 this morning. Slush on the road, luckily light traffic. As usual, the weather changed in Boulder Canyon, at Boulder Falls. Heavy accumulation. Did CDOT take a holiday? 4"+ on the road. At the Narrows all 2wds lost it, as usual. Obstacle course ensued. There was a brand new Mustang trying but he was all but off the road. So far, 3' average with 4'+ in some areas. Just got done plowing some neighbors and had to roll up the window because the drifts were falling into the cab. Still coming down. I might take a snow day tomorrow.
Al la 2003. I've seen worse!![]()

SW part of Colorado Springs, maybe 3". Tomorrow might be a different story.
So Lakewood and Denver are not too bad but it's really starting to mount on the roads. Aurora has more snow on the roads and is slower than Lakewood or Denver. I still made it home in 30 min but everyone else on the roads right now are doing maybe 20-25 in a 45. I was still able to do the speed limit.

It's all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits.....
What snow? ...it's just a little chilled mountain states sunshine.
Son of a bitch. I get off in an hour and the CDOT web site says HWY 119 is closed from Golden to Nederland. That's my ONLY option to get to the house without taking a 3 hour detour. Hopefully I can get the hell out of here. It's my Friday too.![]()
About a foot in my part of Centennial. I fertilized the lawn on Thursday, had the mower serviced so I guess I'll be ready to go when all this is gone lol.
The pup is the only one around here that's enjoying it haha.
Yay! Made it home. 119 was just snowpacked, but my road was not plowed for several hours. Had to be a foot and a half on it at 5:30. I had to bust out the snow pants and coat to chain up to get up the hill (steepest "maintained" road in the county, so I'm not bitchin about the county boys. They do an awesome job all winter).
This might be the biggest storm up here since '03, but it's close. 4 feet minimum.
