It's not unprecedented for Denver, the earliest first snowfall for them was on the 3rd of September in 1961, but this was the earliest snowfall ever for Rapid City, South Dakota. I live on the other side of South Dakota from Rapid City, so no snow for me, but it's supposed to be 32˚F here tomorrow morning. It was 37˚F this morning and 38˚F yesterday morning.
SERIOUSLY Liv? It isn't even autumn yet and FREEZING in South Dakota NOW? Is that "normal" or rare or never happened before? Thank you for chiming in to let us know how it goes in your neck of the woods. Happy Thursday m'dear and STAY SAFE! :)
They call it a natural cyclic change in weather patterns. Nothing unusual about that. Here in Michigan, I remember one deer hunting season (Nov 15), some years ago, when the temperature was 65 to 70 degrees. No one got a deer but we did play a lot of horseshoes and lawn darts. Nobody thought anything about it. No end of the world scenario here.
