Plows were dispatched across Colorado Springs on Thursday evening as snow began to fall across the Pikes Peak region, leaving motorists with a slick commute.
"It is by far the worst at the far north end," Winckler said. "But we're finding that most of our roadways are turning white."I see the lights of Boston approaching in the distance. My flight is almost over; however my spring list is nearly complete. I am sure I have missed a few items, but my wife will surely remind me. I look forward to the warmth of spring, but as I look down at my list, I think, I�ll just sit back and savor the final weeks of winter."We blew through our snow budget in January," Wachtler said, although he declined to state the amount of that budget.As always with a non-vinyl sided house, there is painting. Over the years, I have come to the conclusion it is best to paint a portion of the house each year; one year the clapboards, another year the trim, and maybe in the third year the shutters. I am sure the professional painter would beg to differ with my advice, but hey, not all of us can justify the professional painter every 3-5 years, nor can we dedicate an entire week or two of our spring painting the whole house. I have found it best to do the spring painting as soon as the whether gets above 50 degrees. Any sooner, it is too cold for the paint. Any later, and one has to contend with the other flying insect, the hornet.Bob Weslowski, owner of RBR/Melville Snow Removal, can attest to that. Weslowski said this is the busiest winter ever for his Islandia-based company.Friday should bring a welcome change to the recent string of storms and bone-chilling temperatures. The city should reach a high temperature of 45 on Friday before returning to the mid-40s on Saturday.
