A Change Is Forecast!

Our snowpack is still huge. The wind over the last couple of days drifted it badly--and closed my driveway again. Today I went out with an ordinary shovel and broke up the drifts, thinking that maybe much of it would sublime (solid turning directly to a gas, as happens to ice cubes in your freezer). I didn't think that any would be melting, and it hasn't for several weeks.

But after one more cold night, warmth is forecast for the rest of this week! A flow of air from the warmer south. Denver will be in the 40s and 50s, which should mean temperatures well above freezing up here. That's going to solve some problems, but will create another--mud.
