Aurora, CO

The climate we are a changing... - 8/22/2014
I've only lived here about 6 years but wow what a change the weather has taken. My friend who is from here can't remember when the climate has been so different in so many ways. For one thing about 10 years ago there were NO tornado's here. Now during the summer months mostly around the end of May into the beginning of July there are numerous Tornado alerts. Some have touched down in various areas around Denver and done damage but so far not in Aurora where I'm now living. Normally the winters get at least 2 or 3 really deep snowfalls but in between the weather is cold but beautifully sunny. But this past year we only got a couple snows and it didn't get deep at all. It's amazing how sunny the area is. It seems like almost every day the sun is out. This summer has been extremely strange as well though. Normally July and August are really hot and I mean in the mid to upper 90's even the low hundreds for weeks at a time. But this summer even though we've had hot days almost every evening we've had lightening and thunder with rain. So instead of everything drying out and looking brown by September like it normally is, everything is green and lush. If we had palm trees you'd swear you were in the tropics. It's very weird. To sum it up, the weather is changing everywhere but the one thing that's pretty constant in Colorado is the sun. You see it almost every day and even in the winter after a snow you will see people walking around in t-shirts and shorts, after all the suns out so why not? But in 20 degree weather? Oh well we each have our temperature tolerances I guess. So is this a sign of permanent changes in the weather patterns or just a fluke? Who knows. All I know is the summers can get hot and the winters can get pretty darn cold so if you like extremes in temperature, Colorado is for you.
