Finally got that missing spring blizzard.. mule deer are greatly displeased...



National Weather Service hit this one precisely. Whiteout would begin at precisely 11 a.m., and it did. I-25 was a horror show. Snow will keep up through noon on Friday. These ten deer huddled together on my back ridge, looking for food and half-shelter from the winds.

Hey Loring, just keep that weather down there where you are! We've already had two wicked blizzards this week.....am definitely missing last Saturday's 70's.
Keep warm!

Poor things! When it's like that here, they chew off the yew leaves bare. I hope you weren't in I-25! What a nightmare.

Oh yeah, I went from city to Monument about 2 pm, and it started around noon - it was NASTY.

Hey, Sharon, this one went southeast, Dalhart and Amarillo are reporting waist-deep snow.
