The Great Denver Snow Caper: Where'd All the White Stuff Go?
Ah, Denver snow. The powdery angel-maker, the glistening traffic nightmare (we all love a good sledding commute, right?), the magical transformer of our city into a winter wonderland...well, this year, things have been a bit, well, underwhelming.
Did a rogue squirrel steal all the snowflakes?
No, luckily Denver's adorable (and possibly mischievous) squirrel population is blameless. But what gives? This season, Denver has seen a measly 10.4 inches of snowfall – that's a whopping 2.3 inches below average. Basically, our snowball fights have been reduced to pathetic marshmallow melees.
Tip: Don’t skip the small notes — they often matter.
Where's the outrage? The justice for our snow-deprived selves?
Hold your horses (or should we say, hold your snow shovels?) The National Weather Service assures us this is just a blip in the snowy timeline. Maybe Mother Nature overslept on snow duty, or perhaps she was busy perfecting her hailstorm technique (don't worry, Denver, we're not jinxing anything!).
Tip: Revisit challenging parts.
But fear not, fellow Denverites! There's always next year. And hey, on the bright side, you can finally wear those cute snow boots you haven't gotten a chance to break in – maybe pair them with some fancy sunglasses?
Looking for a little extra sunshine (because, let's face it, that's what we've been getting a lot of)? Here are some fun facts to brighten your day:
QuickTip: Don’t rush through examples.
