Some great shots for a hot day from Bill McMillan… he writes:
“Hey James,
Just wanted to send you a few photos from Breckenridge, Colorado. I recently moved out this way to experience the Rocky Mountains (though I’m still going to keep MountainCityWeatherCenter.com in operation)! I got a nice job with the Town of Breckenridge so I lucked out there, plus I’m already amazed with the weather out this way! The mountains above my apartment are snow capped and rise in elevation to 14,000 feet. The town of Breckenridge, itself, sits in a ‘valley’ 9,600 feet above sea level. Breckenridge averages 300 inches of snowfall per year, and it can snow pratically any month of the year. The ‘big snows’ usually start late in September.
Even this morning the low dipped to 38 degrees…not bad for early August!
Hope the ABC 33/40 weather team is doing well!
I’ve attached some pictures from around Breckenridge.
Talk to you soon, and stay cool in that Alabama heat!
– Bill”
