Snow in Tucson?
(this is a back-post to 1/21/07)
I got stuck in Tucson on Jan 21... of all things because of SNOW. Yeah, I know it's January, and it snows yearly in the mountains, but in the Tucson basin? Apparently, it last happened about 20 years ago. So, I got lucky and get to stay in Tucson one more night.
The truth was that we got about 1/2" of snow, which melted fairly fast, but the problem was that Tucson Airport didn't have enough working de-icer to de-ice the planes AND snow plow to clear the runway, so it was safer to cancell the flights.
So, I present you with some cool pictures of snow and catus.
