Is There Still (Any?!) Hope for Snow?!

Right now this "winter" -- the quotes are there for a very real (and depressingly so) reason -- is among the top ten warmest winters for Colorado (east of the Rockies/Foothills) in the past century! Significantly more disturbing, (at least for this particularly ardent snow fanatic), if the weather doesn't change DRASTICALLY over the next 2 weeks, this could go down as *the* least snowy winter season in over a century! OUCH :(

I won't hold my breath, since I've already done that (and been disappointed) about 1,100 different times already this "winter "-- to ZERO avail -- but there are some early indications that the period March 22-31 *may* finally (?!?!) bring colder than normal and potentially snowy weather to our region.

If we don't get at least another 6"+ of snow during the remainder of March in the Denver metro area, this will easily go down as one of, if not **the**, least snowy March's since records have been kept! *Sigh*

Keep hope alive. And I'll keep you posted....
