Colorado’s first snowstorm of the season may not go down in the record books, but it still managed to blow past average monthly snow totals for the Front Range and Eastern Plains and provide much-needed moisture for the region. The storm’s long duration was a buffer against some of the worst impacts on metro Denver, said David Barjenbruch, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Boulder office.

Happy hours are a great way to spend less money while enjoying small bites and deals on drinks. But it can be tough to sync up a late-afternoon time block during the weekday grind.
