The Dichotomy of Laramie's weather

Someone asked---so I'm happy to show---what happened to the snow this afternoon.



Photo taken at approximately 5PM of the Junior High, which could barely be seen in the photo taken earlier this afternoon. [If you click and zoom in on the photo, you might see the snow caps just beyond the goal post.]

At 5 PM it was still cloudy, windy and chilly (the temperature gage in my car hovered at 32 degrees all day) but the snow had stopped and melted by 4:30 pm.

I've been hearing all day about how it has snowed during every single month in Laramie at some time or other, including once on the 4th of July!

Did I really sign up for this?

    Sun is the magic ingredient.. No matter how much snow, if you get some sun you will be a happy camper...even if it's 20 below! No sun??? Find a favorite coffee shop, or gym, or 'outlet' for those overcast days where you can get out for at least an hour of pretend sun! And get some snow shoes!
