Blizzard of 2006 - Wednesday Afternoon
It's coming down pretty good now. There's 8-12 inches of snow on the ground, with varying degrees of depth because it's so windy. I just walked down to our local Sushi place and the snow was up to the top of my Sorel boots. While I was waiting for my order, I noticed the snow is actually coming down sideways thanks to the wind. On the way back, I learned it's pretty fricken' nasty - walking into the storm gives you a whole new perspective.
From the looks of it, this town will be snowed in tomorrow. The airport is pretty much shutdown already. If you were planning on flying out of Denver for Christmas, you're not going now. The flights are already booked for Christmas, so there will be no extra room for those with cancelled flights today.
