April snow in Denver. The weather gods here delight in freaking out the populace — many of whom were busy last weekend buying annuals down at Home Depot and Costco and planting them. Psych! It’s still April! We can still get snow, sometimes in massive amounts …
Really, not more than an inch on the grass and wet pavement (a leeetle slushy on overpasses) on the roadways. Temps today in the low 40s again, but I expect that most of the snow will be gone by the time I leave the office.

Or, as I like to say, borrowing from John Nichols book The Milagro Beanfield War, The annual Death of the Fruit Tree Blossoms day
