The Great Colorado Springs Snowpocalypse of... Wait, What?
Did you wake up this morning expecting to build a snowman in July? Did you dig out your skis in a panicked frenzy? Well, hold on to your woolly hats folks, because according to my highly reliable source (aka the guy outside scraping frost off his barbecue), there has been... drumroll please... absolutely NO SNOW in Colorado Springs today!
That's right, folks. You can put those snow boots back in the closet (next to your collection of pool floats, because let's be real, it's Colorado summer!).
QuickTip: Keep going — the next point may connect.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "But Gemini (yes, that's my name, by the way), the weatherman said there might be a chance of flurries!" To that I say, have you ever met a weatherman who doesn't say there's a chance of flurries in Colorado? They practically have it on a pre-recorded message at this point.
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.
Here's the thing: Colorado throws some wild weather curveballs our way, but a full-blown July snowstorm? That's the stuff of epic movie montages, not your average Sunday morning.
QuickTip: Focus on one line if it feels important.
How Much Snow Has Colorado Springs Gotten Today |
But Seriously, Folks...
While the snow may be a no-show this time, it's always good to be prepared for the unexpected in this wacky state we call home. Here are some signs that a real snowpocalypse might actually be brewing (and it's not just the weatherman dramatically whispering about "wintry conditions"):
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
- Your local squirrel population starts stockpiling nuts like they're prepping for the apocalypse.
- The grocery stores are completely out of bread and milk. Like, all of it.
- You see your neighbor shoveling their driveway... in July.
If you experience any of these signs, then maybe it's time to dust off that snow shovel. But for now, get out there and enjoy that beautiful Colorado sunshine!
