Im not sure where to post such as this, new here.
Ive gotten at least sixteen inches of snow, SE of Denver, along Palmer Divide. What they show so far on news/weather channels is not at all what a lot have gotten.....Wind is picking up, the drifting is starting and they are closing main roads out in the county.
Its early October.....

Well, my electric bill goes sky high, I get chilled to the bone, no one can drive in snow down here, schools close, it eventually turns into mush, and let's see...ummm....my plans are to stay home, make homemade hot chocolate, warm cheesey shrimp soup, and build snow men and have snow fights with my teenagers who have never seen more than one fleck of snow at a time....yep....all worth it!
But, alas, even the best laid plans can be uprooted.

And then we get a major 'cane targeting us the following hurricane season.

We had snow at Christmas last year...and then this year we got Rita (though my area was lucky). And in 1899 there was snow in Galveston...and then the 1900 Storm followed.

Yep, this is true....If I were a bettin' gal....I'd bet that a hurricane will hit Houston/Galveston area in next two years. Don't ask me to back my intuitions up with any facts....I'm just throwing that out into the wind. Some would call it wish-casting.....I just call it a goofy hunch.
