"The excitement begins Thursday..."

Snow is back in the forecast. The National Weather Service notes that “the excitement begins Thursday night as both (weather, not fashion) models project a cold front moving through NW CO and NE UT in the evening…then continuing through most of Western CO by Friday morning.” Cool. Then it notes that the front includes “increased clouds…precip…winds…and snowfall.” Man, is that good to hear. The semi-serious rain and snow is likely to happen on Friday afternoon. Friday night will bring a low of 25 while on Saturday night, temps should drop to 18 degrees and on Sunday, they should fall to 16 degrees in Aspen. That’s cold enough to make some serious snow. It’s good to see all that in the forecast because both today and tomorrow in Aspen, the high temp is supposed to be a balmy 57 degrees, warm enough for ice tea.
