falling on me yesterday morning on the way home from Alberta. Height of the continental divide. Not sticking on the road but right to the shoulder in the trees. Summers over!

Rick I don't know how you people live in PHX my temp limit is about 85F. Evan we had a really intense cold front move thru and this is out of the ordinary for this time of year but in the rocks you never know. 5415'
It's normal to get "temporary snow" in the mountains of Alberta/BC this time of year. I always live in fear if I take my RX-7 to the coast this time of year - that thing is impossible in snow, because of the "performance tires". They are ball bearings in snow. We will now return to another month of wonderful weather, then winter will decend on us.

It was in the hi 20's and just kept dropping till it snowed. Was there visiting and had to go and try and buy a coat, but in August they are really hard to find, bought a sweater instead. You should have seen all the slipping and sliding then. Not a snow tire in sight.
