Poor Denver.

Aside from cold and rainy snaps (2-3 days per, temps in 40s, rain), it's pretty much been sunny and in the 50s-60s here for the last month. Only came a light flurry once.

If it's gonna snow here (in Kentucky), it'll do it in February. To the best of my knowledge, all the big snows of my lifetime here were in Feb.

No snow in NYC so far, and it's GREAT. This may be the first trackable snowless December in NYC since 1891 I believe.

you want it? you can have it! :p I don't mind a white Christmas, but this is getting insane. we just went through hell last week, we don't really need people getting into accidents all over the highways again. they're saying we're going to get another foot by tomorrow night. the two feet we got last week just started melting the past few days, too. :o

and it looks like my ski trip tomorrow is cancelled, too. http://www.skyscrapercity.com/images/smilies/shake.gif

Similar conditions here in North Dakota. At least, my neck of the woods anyway. It was in the 70s a few times in November (okay, now that's ridiculous), and we only ever had two flurries TOTAL and that was in October. It's rained quite a few times so far this month. In NORTH DAKOTA in December. Yeah, someone please explain the logic of that to me. :confused:

We haven't had a real blizzard here since, like, the winter of 1996-97. I wouldn't mind a blizzard about right now.
