Blizzard in April:  The Day After by taffy

Blizzard in April: The Day After

While Chicago enjoyed perfect 80 degree sunny weather, I missed it this weekend while in the midst of a spring blizzard in Colorado. Beautiful, but not how we'd planned to spend a family visit. And scary flying in with zero visibility!
Come on Taffy, let's see spring! brrr, still winter where you are. Lovely shot though. Just looks so cold.

@pamknowler Chicago weather changes constantly. Now it's about 50 degrees, getting up to 60 something today, and then rain tonight. Best to look at the forecast the day before you have to pack to see the long range (10 day) forecast.

That sky looks very ominous Taffy, I can understand you being scared flying into the airport!

Several feet of spring snow. Good if you are a skier or a photographer.

Very lovely landscape.

Lovely winter scene. I like how the snow covered trees mimic the snow covered mountains.

Spring is the funnest time to look at people's pictures - while some already sunning, there is still snow and blizzards in the others. Beautiful scenery here!

Great landscape shot, even if it wasn't what you were expecting!
April 19th, 2016  
beautiful scene...don't like the idea of zero vis with flying though...no no no no no!...

Leaving for USA in just under a fortnight - looking at all the photos of crazy weather, I have no idea what to pack!!
April 20th, 2016  
Just beautiful!

Burrrr!

Brilliant capture of that wintry landscape.

It looks pretty with a dusting of snow. But flying in zero visibility - yikes!
April 20th, 2016  
Beautiful even with the low cloud cover!
April 20th, 2016  
Lovely shot, but I don't envy you flying in bad weather.

Very pretty and post-card material. I don't envy you the landing though. We're having crazy weather too, 30C here yesterday, high twenties for the previous few, We're into the second half of autumn and I'm wearing shorts and a T-shirt.

The weather has been crazy throughout our USA. We will be getting rain after it being 90 for a couple of days while others are freezing or just about floating away like my cousin and family in Texas. Beautiful capture. Hope you had a great time. FAV
