Well, hold on to your hats (because, let's face it, you probably weren't wearing one in this weather), because reality is about to hit harder than a snowball to the face.

| How Much Did It Snow In Denver |
It Came, It Saw, It... Meh.
Yes, Denver did get a taste of winter's fury... well, a spring version of that fury, anyway.

QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.

Important Side Note: If you're one of those people who enjoys watching their neighbors struggle to dig out of their driveways, this might be your time to shine (ethically questionable, but hey, to each their own).
