Snow is forecast for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm watch for Thursday.
All the teams that were wishing for snow, looks like you will get you wish.

We're pretty excited, coming from a desert in California.

We all packed some pretty warm clothes, and todays weather was pretty nice (disappointing for us)! It's nice to be in Denver though, today we rocked out Dave and Busters, and tomorrow we're going on a Mint Tour, and then some of us are going to a hockey game or another tour...

Then thursday the fun begins!

The current prediction is that 1-2 ft of snow in denver on thursday & friday. This system is going to the spot that makes it so that the front range get's a blizzard.(low over amarillo + upslope winds = Blizzard)




And yes, I gladfuly eat my words from earlier.

Re: 2009 Colorado Regional
how many teams DIDN'T go because of the snow?

Our team meet up early in the morning on spring break with just a small ammount of snow on the ground. we were all thinking that we were going since the roads were not bad. by the time the bus arrived, there was several inches and we decided not to go...

have no worries, team 1245 plans to be there tomorrow!
