I am on the Colorado/Wyoming border at a little over 7000 feet. It has been snowing all day with a shreiking wind behind it. I wasn't worried as it didn't look too bad out the front window. Been working all day and haven't gone outside.

Took the trash down to the bottom of the drive a minute ago and discovered that the wind has been keeping the pastures (which surround the house) clear. Down near the road where there are trees the snow is well over my knees. This is flat snow and not drifts. It still coming down so hard I can't see 100 yards across the pasture. The truck is buried and getting the car out is hopeless. Looks like I am going to be here for a few days.

Anybody else got this sort of thing going on?

Crap. I knew I couldn't just sit back and enjoy the vacation. I had jewelery made up for some people at the solstice party. I need to pick it up in Boulder tomorrow. No way in hell I can get there. I guess everyone will get a lump of coal instead. I do have lots of that.

We closed our shop at 6:00 tonight, highly unusual.

How many inches of snow do you think you've gotten today? Aren't you at a high elevation too?

I just went out to look. It was knee deep when I went out two hours ago. Now all my foot prints are covered and it is waist deep in places. There are waist deep drifts across both ends of our drive. Neighbor has a huge German shepard that would not take a dump because snow was up to his stomach. Guy was shoveling out a bare spot for the dog when I went out. There is about 50 yards of knee deep plus snow along the drive. Don't know what to do about that.

Neighbor has an old Willys that is sitting on a bare spot. Will try to start that when it stops snowing and see if I can beat out a path. Horse stalls are getting three feet plus snow on top. The roof is pretty flat. Might have to climb up tonight and push it off.

Still coming down so hard you can't face the wind. Power is still on. That is a plus.

The wind here is still, 225 miles to the east of you. Must mean we have got another blast to contend with?

The wind has quieted, maybe now 15 to 20 MPH, but it is full of wet snow. It is sort of like sleet. Big ice chrystals and wet stuff. There is still enough wind to keep it coming down sideways.

Just looked out my door - Hard to tell if it was snowing or breeze from the accumulation, winds are down to five to ten, stablizing at 102.5 hhg.

I don't know what your situation is but my advice is to stay put - sleep on the floor.

A few cardbord boxes folded toghther can make for a surprisingly comfortable bed.

What is that all about? I must've missed something; why can't ... sleep in his/her bed?

When you sleep on the floor your ear is closer to the ground.
