Snow and Bingo

So that Spouse o' Mine and I decided we would bug out this week, and head for the hills  mountains:

The Rocky Mountains of Colorado!

But now, we wait.  The insipid forecasters which should be giving us scientific, new-millennium weather forecasts, guiding us as to what our week's actions should be, simply call out any weather happenstance, like Bingo callers. 

B-10º: Baby, it's cold!!!

I-84%: Indicative of some precipitation?

N-20: Northwind @ 25 mph.

G-5: Groundhog done gone underground for some more weeks.

O- 20: A chance of snow before 7pm, then a slight chance of snow between 7pm and 1am. Cloudy during the early evening, then gradual clearing, with a low around -9. Wind chill values between -15 and -20. North wind 5 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Possible 4"-8"' snow.

And so we pack our skis, and we wait. Snow here, snow there, anywhere, we will enjoy the XC skis...

So you are not in Colorado? The yodeling in the last post reminded me of my uncle, who is Dutch, but learned to yodel anyway at all family gatherings.
