| How Much Snow Did Denver Get This Weekend |
A Flinch in Time Saves Nine (Inches)
Now, before you start prepping your snow fort and dusting off your skis, let's be clear: this wasn't a blizzard of epic proportions. We're not talking about building a snowman competition here. Think more of a playful snowball fight than a full-on snowball Armageddon.
Tip: The details are worth a second look.
That being said, some folks definitely got more than a sprinkle. Reports suggest that some areas north of the city saw a whopping 5-inch accumulation! Yes, you read that right, 5 whole inches! Enough to warrant a surprised "Huh, that's weird" while scraping your windshield, but not enough to cancel your brunch plans.
Tip: Reflect on what you just read.
The Denver Snow Divide: From Winter Wonderland to Just Plain Wondering
But here's the kicker: Denver, once again, proved its mastery of microclimates. While some neighborhoods were digging out their winter woolies, others were basking in glorious sunshine. It seems Mother Nature used a paintbrush instead of a bucket this time, creating a patchwork of winter and summer across the city.
QuickTip: Take a pause every few paragraphs.
So, the moral of the story? In Denver, you never know what kind of weather you're going to get, even in July!
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.
Important Side Note: While this mini-snowstorm may have been unexpected, it's a good reminder that Colorado weather can be unpredictable. So, keep an eye on the forecast, folks!
