I thought it was supposed to be Spring

We have been having beautiful weather here in Denver over the last several weeks. It has been nice enough that we have even worn shorts several times. Today, we woke up to a light dusting of snow on the ground. Then, it began snowing again, and it has been dumping down on us hard all day! The forecast says 16-24 inches by tonight. Yikes!! The local schools are all closed, and Adam even got sent home from work at 1:30 this afternoon. I am certainly not complaining about that, but it seems a bit bizarre that the worst storm we have had all year decided to come when it is nearly April!
