Blizzard drops 2 feet of snow in Colorado


The worst blizzard to hit the region since March 2003 dropped 30 inches of snow in the mountains and 2 feet of snow in the metro area of Denver, Colorado Springs and Ft. Collins, Colorado. I am including a picture from Miles of his friend's son back in Denver. All government offices, schools and the Post Office are closed.


The blizzard has left over 4,300 airline passengers stranded in the Denver International Airport as over 1,000 flights were canceled. Colorado Governor Bill Owens activated the National Guard after declaring a state of emergency. The Guard will help deliver necessities to shut-in families and help clear the roads as Interstates 70 & 25 are completely shut-down.


Good news: The Denver Nuggets will finally be cooled off from their fight against the Knicks and if you have family in Colorado whom you've yet to buy a present for, you have time-just blame the Post Office being closed. Stay safe out there Colorado.
