"Blizzard"

So, Denver thinks it has a blizzard on it's hands. Granted, 10+ inches has fallen today in the Metro area, but I was used to that at least once a week in Breckenridge, so I don't see what all the fuss is about. Work closed at 1 p.m., along with every other business. So, instead of a 40 min drive home, it took me two and a half hours! The Governor declared an emergency, highways closed down, schools were not in session and there were hundreds of accidents. We had a about 9 inches at the house. In the long run, the storm is good. Denver has had about 7 inches of snow all winter and barely any rain. So we are dry as a bone and need the precipitation, wet or frozen.
