Windchill:     8 °F
Humidity:     90%
Dew Point:     16 °F
Wind:     10.0 mph from the North
Wind Gust:     17.0 mph
Pressure:     30.05 in (Falling)
Visibility:     0.5 miles
UV:     2 out of 16

(Above Ground Level)
Elevation:     5370 ft
Snow heavy at times over the entire area through this evening.
North to northeast winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to around
40 mph will produce blizzard conditions and considerable drifting
snow on the plains by afternoon. The worst conditions are
expected to be in areas south of a line from Boulder to Akron.

Total snow acculations by late Thursday night will range from
6 to 12 inches across the northeast plains... with 8 to 16 inches
of snow from the Denver Metro area to Limon... and one to two feet
in Douglas and western Elbert counties. The snow and prolonged
winds will also produce considerable drifting of snow.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
occurring or imminent. Sustained wind and/or frequent wind gusts
of 35 mph or higher will combine with considerable falling and
blowing snow to produce widespread visibilities below one quarter
of a mile. Travel will be extremely dangerous and is discouraged
in these whiteout conditions. If you must travel... have a winter
survival kit with you. If you get stranded... stay with your
vehicle and wait for help to arrive.

When Good Leaders Go Apathetic

Gung-ho since December of 2006, I hit a brick wall (figuratively, of course) early this year. Low attendance at meets, low interest on the boards, trouble getting attendees to the Vegas Meet, and lack of communication from a vital member combined to create in me a heaviness that turned into apathy and ambivalence toward the club. And that’s why I need to apologize.

MEET: 7/11/08 Drive in Theatre!

Team Sol Colorado is planning a meet at a Drive-in movie Theatre for July 11, 2008. the drive in name is The 88 Drive-In Theatre in Commerce City (the last drive in theatre in the Denver area). we will be seeing the Hellboy 2 movie and we can have a BBQ before hand if we so choose so.

location: 8780 Rosemary Street (the corner of 88th Ave and Rosemary St.) in Commerce City, 80022
Date: 7/11/08
Time: TBA (depends on when dark)

New Leadership Announced for Team Sol Colorado

Team Sol Colorado gives a sad farewell to Paul Gomez, its sitting President of 3 years, and welcomes the clubs third president, Tyson Thorne.

“Paul has done amazing work for the club and we’ll miss his leadership greatly. I hope he knows that — however involved he still wants to be — he is always welcome and he has friends here,” said Tyson.

Team Sol Colorado also welcomes Wyatt Talley as Vice President of the Colorado chapter. In the past the office of Vice president has had many incarnations, at one point being split between northern and southern Colorado. The new structure is a return to the original whereby there is one vice president over the state chapter.

If Denver Goes Green, Watch your Wallet

What's going on?

Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper is striving to have a plan in place by year's end that will make Denver more energy efficient. While this sounds good on the surface, what it amounts to is the city taking more of your money.

The proposal, called Denver's Climate Action Plan, has many controversial initiatives a few of which are: make residents who use large amounts of electricity and natural gas pay higher utility fees, hike insurance rates for people who drive long distances, and a mandate that homes must be upgraded to energy efficient standards before they can be sold.
