I would love to be a weather forecaster. The worst thing that happens you you're wrong is a few people might not dress right or plan something wrong. In my line of work, if I'm wrong, people die and do so on a very highly visable stage.

WTF is right. Took me 45 minutes to go from 58th and Wadsworth to 61st and Wads only to turn around and go home. Drives me nuts watching people who don't know how to drive trying to climb a snow packed hill at 6000 RPMS!!!!

When I was up at 2am, nothing, up again at 4am few flurries, and when I got up the last time at 6am it looked like a blizzard. Didn't stop snowing until about an hour ago. We probably have a good 4inches on top of Josh's car.

This was pretty ridiculous...it took me nearly TWO HOURS to get from where I live (SW Plaza area) to where I work (Park Meadows area). This is normally a 30-40 minute drive. Apparently there was a wreck at the I25 and C470 interchange that was causing the backup the entire way...I never went faster than 25MPH. Obviously no mag chloride was put down though as the highway was still slick. Gotta love CDOT :rolleyes:

Looks like we're fairly similar in times. I live Park Meadows area (kinda) and work in Stapleton. It took me 75 minutes to go from County Line and University to University and Hampden....THEN another 60 minutes to work---totalling 2hrs. 15mins for a 25 mile drive:eek:
