Does that make you an eskimo? Colorado plains have been warmer than usual. We'll have a few days in the 50's then drop to 20 then back up then down to -5. We do get a lot of sun and unless we get 2 to 3 ft of snow it is usually melted within 2 or 3 days except in shady spots. Sounds awful cold but I hear you have a great view of Russia.
