Re: All Things Denver XXXVII
Yikes! When I was at Goose Air Base in Labrador, it got down to -35 once with wind chill of -100. I knew guys who were Air Policemen, walking the perimeter of the base armed with M-16s and dogs. I've always been convinced they'd turn those dogs loose or shoot you in the a*s out of resentment or boredom. They had so much snow, with the stuff piled so high at intersections, it was like driving in a tunnel. The crews sprayed purple dye at intersections to give you some idea of depth perception and that an intersection was approaching.
Some areas in the snowbelts of Upstate New York especially northeast of Syracuse are expected to get 2 to 6 feet by Wednesday. Buffalo is expected to get 2 to 3 feet today. The water in the Great Lakes is much warmer than the air temperature creating huge lake effect snows.
