Several communities around the nation have real life superheroes. That is actually what they refer to themselves as: Real Life Superheroes, or RLSH for short. Seattle has Phoenix Jones and Purple Reign. Atlanta has Crimson Fist. New York has Nyx. Grand Junction had Speedo-Man. Not only did Speedo-Man not fight crime, he was constantly getting busted and cited with Indecent Exposure. Why can't we have a real super hero, too?
Viewing the breathtaking night skies in Colorado can be difficult if you're close to the ambient light of the city, but the Colorado National Monument has the perfect solution this weekend.
One month ago today, the city of Olathe cancelled the Sweet Corn fest. But a month later, it was announced that the event was back on!
Yesterday's somewhat uncommon snowfall in the Grand Valley prompted residents to fire up their cameras and capture images of an unexpected, but largely appreciated, mid-April snow shower.
In a word, yes, it's not uncommon to see snow in Western Colorado this late in April. It is a bit uncommon to have as heavy a snowfall as we've just seen. Historically, significant snowfall has accounted for only 1% of the occurrences of precipitation reported during the month of April.
Some areas of Colorado have already received 2 feet of snow and more is expected to fall through today.
The awesome Grand Junction weather is but mere moments away, which means winter hibernators will be shaking off the cobwebs and hitting the outdoors. One of the best ways to get rid of that cabin fever is on the hiking trails. Before you head out trekking the most difficult trails, make sure YOU are prepared.
