And we're going to 74 00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:18.360 get into that in a little bit. The first, I 75 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:22.079 want to talk about last night's event that I was 76 00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.639 a co moderator for. I was invited by the just 77 00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.639 phenomenal group of people who have created an organization called 78 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.639 Douglas County Citizenry, and though it is a right of 79 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.920 center organization, they welcome all and last night we did 80 00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:40.439 a forum with the eight school board candidates that are 81 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:43.759 running in Douglas County. We have two slates of school 82 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:49.439 board candidates running together and the slate emerged gosh years 83 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:52.879 ago I mean they did slates back in you know, 84 00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:57.240 when I was in Louisville, because the Teachers' Union, generally speaking, 85 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.600 would hand pick their candidates, and then the teachers Union 86 00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:02.959 would spend a bunch of money to support those four 87 00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:04.800 candidates all at one time. They would put them all 88 00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:06.079 on the same mailer, they'd put them all on the 89 00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:12.399 same billboard, and they would do that. Now now conservatives 90 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:16.399 have recognized that it's impossible to fundraise enough as an 91 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:19.879 individual candidate, so they have created slates as well. So 92 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:23.959 in Douglas County, we have a slate of conservative leaning candidates, 93 00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.720 and we have a slate of people who excuse me, 94 00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:33.480 who though the Teachers' Union has endorsed them. Last night, 95 00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.560 we asked specifically about things like the collective Bargaining Agreement 96 00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:40.879 and things of that nature, and some of them actually said, 97 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:43.920 I have not committed in any way, shape or form 98 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.279 to the collective Bargaining Agreement. And the only reason I 99 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.160 bring that up is, and I'm bringing this up at all, 100 00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:54.079 was that the event was wonderful. It was respectful, We 101 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:59.759 heard different opinions from the candidates. Nobody was rude, no 102 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:04.319 one and was disparaging towards their opponent. We learned a lot, 103 00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:07.240 We asked a bunch of questions. We had audience that 104 00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:10.360 was respectful as well. I mean, they supported their candidates, 105 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:12.040 but they didn't get out of control, and nobody was 106 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:14.600 rude from the audience, and it was just it was great. 107 00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:19.120 It was really, really great. I liked it. I learned 108 00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.240 a lot. It's going to be put online. It will 109 00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:23.319 be put online at some point, so we'll let you 110 00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.600 know when it is up. I'll share it on the blog. 111 00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:27.959 So if you live in Douglas County, you can do 112 00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:30.399 the same. But the reason I bring it up on 113 00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:32.600 this show when most of you don't live in Douglas County, 114 00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:36.920 is that I would love for other people, other civic 115 00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:41.759 minded people, to start to use this model of informed debate, 116 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:45.680 of civic conversation, and let's just get that going at 117 00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:49.079 the grassroots, because we've lost control at the national level, 118 00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:53.199 right our national politicians. And you know, I am not 119 00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.720 going to both sides what happened to Charlie Kirk, Because 120 00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:57.879 as much as the left has tried to tell me 121 00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:00.920 it's both sides in this case, the political violence lately 122 00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:04.079 has been all from the left and it's been dramatic 123 00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:14.240 and it has been murderous, and it's not the same 124 00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.079 as saying things that people disagree with, right, I mean, 125 00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:21.480 it just isn't. But I'd love for us to at 126 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:24.759 the grassroots level, at the local level, create events where 127 00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:27.000 I mean dep floor and I we spent like an 128 00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:29.040 hour and a half on the phone on Saturday just 129 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:34.399 trying to craft questions that were open ended so we 130 00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:37.639 could just ask the candidates like, here's the question, open 131 00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:40.720 ended question, just answer the question in however you want. 132 00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:42.879 We didn't want to create leading questions. We didn't want 133 00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.639 to create questions that put anybody on their back feet. 134 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:46.279 You know. 135 00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:51.519 We tried really hard to really make this a chance 136 00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:54.879 for people to just hear from the candidates themselves what 137 00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:57.120 they thought, what their vision was, and I think it 138 00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:00.120 was a very successful event. So I would urge you to, 139 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:02.879 first of all, if you are in a different district, 140 00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.560 if you're not in Douglas County, if you're in jeff Co. 141 00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:06.240 And you're in Denver, or you're in any of these 142 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:10.920 other counties, maybe follow Douglas County Citizen read four ideas 143 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:13.680 on how to make this happen. If you do join 144 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.040 the private group and then cause problems, we will kick 145 00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.240 you out. It is a private group on Facebook, but 146 00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:20.600 we do have a public page as well. And the 147 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:23.079 whole point of this is to create dialogue and create 148 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:28.959 real dialogue where people can learn about things. So it 149 00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:35.000 is going to hopefully you and I and real people 150 00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:40.200 in our community can change the dialogue and change the narrative. Mandy, 151 00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:43.279 why would you allow teachers union backed liberals. They deserve 152 00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:46.879 nothing because they're running for office, because they have put 153 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.919 their hat in the ring. And some of them, by 154 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:55.840 the way, have really strong concerns and really strong ideas. 155 00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:59.159 And I you know, after the debate last night, it 156 00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:02.440 wasn't really a debate is more of a forum. And 157 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.080 after the forum last night, I thought to myself, you know, 158 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.399 I sure hope that the people up on that stage 159 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:11.159 that don't win, whoever it is, on either side, I 160 00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.360 hope that they don't give up trying to bring their 161 00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.879 ideas to the board. And I would hope that the 162 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:19.600 new board members would welcome those ideas even if they 163 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:21.919 aren't their ideas right, because there were some good ideas 164 00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:26.440 laid out last night. So I want to hear from 165 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:29.840 everybody and in all honesty, you guys, When I have 166 00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:33.159 candidates on the show that I disagree with, and I 167 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.679 may push back a little bit, but that's not why 168 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:38.200 I have a candidate for office on this program. It's 169 00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:40.960 not so you can hear me argue with them. My 170 00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:43.519 goal in having a candidate on the show, whether I 171 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.080 agree with them or disagree with them, is to ask 172 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:49.720 them questions so that you, the listener, can hear them 173 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.120 answer and you can hear straight from the horse's mouth 174 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:57.519 without a filter, without some kind of intermediary. You can 175 00:09:57.559 --> 00:09:59.799 hear straight from the horse's mouth and you can make 176 00:09:59.879 --> 00:10:03.720 up your own mind. And sometimes people are like, you 177 00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:06.639 should have pushed them. No, they're a candidate for office. 178 00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:09.919 I don't need to push them. You heard what they said. 179 00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:13.519 It evoked a reaction. So therefore you can build your 180 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:15.720 vote on whether or not you liked that or you 181 00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:18.919 did not like that. So when we're talking about candidates 182 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:23.000 for office, I want people to have the opportunity to 183 00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:26.080 speak and for you guys, to use your own brains 184 00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:28.960 to figure out whether or not they have earned your vote. 185 00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:33.720 It's really that simple. Now, I saw the list. I 186 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:36.799 saw the list for Republican candidates for governor that have 187 00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:41.879 already announced. Guys, there's a zero percent chance I'm going 188 00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:44.639 to have all of those people on the show. Zero 189 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:48.360 There's so many people on this list, and many of 190 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:51.000 them will drop out. They'll never really form a real candidacy. 191 00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:53.600 They just put their name in because they, you know, 192 00:10:53.639 --> 00:10:56.840 they got a momentary thought where they thought, yeah, yeah, 193 00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:58.399 I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna and they have no 194 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:00.840 infrastructure and they have no plan, and they have enough. 195 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.720 But there are numerous people on this list that are 196 00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.200 going to be competitive and are going to be candidates. 197 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:10.159 But there are people that I probably won't have on 198 00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:13.840 the show because you know, I'm just going to use 199 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:16.759 Greg Lopez as an example. I like Greg. I think 200 00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:18.720 he's a nice guy. Greg is never going to win 201 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.159 the governor's race. It's not going to happen. He has tried, 202 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.960 He has tried multiple times to win multiple offices. For 203 00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:27.720 whatever reason, people are not going to vote for Greg Lopez. 204 00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:30.240 And I know Greg, and I can tell you exactly 205 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.679 what his positions are on everything. So yeah, I'm going 206 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:35.360 to be a little choosy about that stuff, but I 207 00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.919 do I try to give the candidates both candidates. I 208 00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:41.240 like candidates. I disagree with the opportunity to make their 209 00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:44.360 case to you because I trust the audience that you 210 00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:50.440 guys are not stupid. That's the reality, Mandy. Did you 211 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:53.600 see the trash ABC put out about how romantic the 212 00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:56.799 text messages were from the Kirk killer to his roommate 213 00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:00.720 lover about how and why he killed Kirk? Truly unbelievable 214 00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.240 garbage from ABC News, fake news, despicable, and my friends, 215 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:08.960 this brings me back to a large chunk of the 216 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:14.840 blog today. I am trying to rise above and I 217 00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:17.120 don't mean rise above the murder of Charlie Kirk, because 218 00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:19.159 that I don't know if I'm going to get over 219 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.799 that anytime soon, if ever. What I'm trying to rise 220 00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:26.039 above is my frustration that people on the left not 221 00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:29.840 only have not dialed down the rhetoric, they are amping 222 00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:33.279 it up, even right here in Colorado. And I gathered 223 00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:36.759 up a few examples because here's the thing. You know, 224 00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:39.480 I've gone through different cycles in my show. It's like, 225 00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:41.919 do I amplify this because it's so horrible, and then 226 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:46.039 I'm just giving, you know, more publicity to someone horrible 227 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:49.720 who said something awful. But the reality is this our 228 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:54.360 silence has been mistaken as for approval. 229 00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:55.399 Right. 230 00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:00.080 I saw a girl last night on social media and 231 00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:02.600 this I can't say girl. She was a woman, She 232 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.519 was a woman maybe late twenties, early thirties, and she's 233 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:09.960 talking to the camera and she said, what is it 234 00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:14.159 about this Charlie Kirk assassination that has been such a 235 00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:17.440 big deal. She's like, all of a sudden, people on 236 00:13:17.480 --> 00:13:21.480 social media who never said anything about politics are saying things, 237 00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:27.879 what is it? Why this thing? And she was genuinely confused, 238 00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:35.279 like really had no idea why people were so upset, 239 00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:39.399 and I just thought, I can't. I can't. I'm not 240 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:42.159 ready to rise above yet. I'm ready to fight back. 241 00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:48.000 I'm ready to gently and politely, because that's who I am, 242 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:50.919 shut down the people that I know and that I 243 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:54.320 see in my life who are posting things that are, 244 00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:57.039 in my mind a personal attack. And that's how this 245 00:13:57.159 --> 00:13:59.519 feels for me. If you're gonna tell me what a 246 00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:02.480 bad guy Charlie Kirk was, you are telling me that 247 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:05.039 I am a bad person as well, because I believe 248 00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:07.759 a lot of the same things he believed. Not everything. 249 00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:11.519 We didn't have the exact same lockstep views on everything, 250 00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:14.559 but you know what, I agreed with a lot of it. 251 00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.919 So when people say Charlie Kirk didn't deserve to die, 252 00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:24.360 but after that point, after that, but you're talking about me, 253 00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:28.440 and you're talking about me, what if I died, you 254 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:30.559 would be like, oh, she didn't deserve to die. But 255 00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:35.960 it's all it's deeply personal. And the people on the 256 00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:40.559 left that are celebrating, they don't understand that. What's been 257 00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:42.759 really heartening is over the last twenty four hours, I 258 00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:46.919 have seen so many videos, so many videos from not 259 00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:52.120 just in the United States, people around the world who 260 00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.840 are taking to the streets over the murder of Charlie Kirk. 261 00:14:56.799 --> 00:15:01.720 What they have unleashed a movement and they're not ready 262 00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:06.039 for it. They really aren't, Mandy. Have you seen Kyle 263 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:08.840 Clark and nine News post on Facebook? The comments of 264 00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:12.799 their followers is something truly pathetic and sick, and Kyle 265 00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:15.480 acts as if he isn't part of the problem. Hey, 266 00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:17.559 you know what, let's talk about nine News for just 267 00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:24.159 a moment. Nine News decided and I think probably tomorrow 268 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:27.799 I will send an email to the editor of the 269 00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:31.320 program on nine News that made the decision to air 270 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:37.879 a story about a black pastor in Virginia who has 271 00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:44.200 gone on a hate field rant. Oh geez, I linked 272 00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:46.679 to the wrong thing. Did I do this back? 273 00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:46.840 Oh? 274 00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:47.039 I did? 275 00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:49.080 No, I did not do that. I have to fix this. 276 00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:50.919 I linked to the wrong thing. So there was a 277 00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:57.080 black pastor in Alexandria, Virginia, right who has gone viral. Yep, 278 00:15:57.120 --> 00:16:01.080 they've gone viral because he is can in Charlie Kirk 279 00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:06.120 from the pulpit. Now, why in the world would nine News, Hey, 280 00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:09.440 ay Rod, didn't nine News move their offices to Virginia 281 00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:12.840 that he says? No sore? Still are you sure there's 282 00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:15.519 still based here? I mean I recently drove by their 283 00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:19.399 big building downtown and it still had nine News on 284 00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:22.320 the side. So I mean, I'm assuming they're still here 285 00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:25.960 in Colorado. But yet they chose, out of every story 286 00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:28.840 that has occurred, out of every ramp that has taken place, 287 00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:31.759 out of everyone who's commented on the Charlie Kirk story, 288 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:37.039 they chose a black pastor who condemned Charlie Kirk from 289 00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:41.080 his pulpit as the story to amplify. So is it 290 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.919 any wonder? Is it any wonder at all that their 291 00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:51.879 followers would you know, take to their Facebook page to 292 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:55.159 also dance on the grave of Charlie Kirk. And here's 293 00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:59.000 the thing, you, guys, if you are in any way, 294 00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:03.919 shape or form excusing or celebrating, or in any way 295 00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:07.839 commenting on what a horrible person Charlie Kirk was, you 296 00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:13.400 are justifying political murder. Now, you can try and convince 297 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:15.839 yourself that it isn't. But what's happening on the left, 298 00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:20.440 what's happening, with incredible clarity, is that the cognitive dissonance 299 00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:22.839 on the left of people on the left who have 300 00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:26.160 always assumed that their party was the party of moral 301 00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:29.319 superiority are being faced with the fact that they are 302 00:17:29.400 --> 00:17:33.000 not the good guys and that their party is the 303 00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:36.359 party of death, and they can't handle it. They can't 304 00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:39.119 handle it. So anything that would force them to come 305 00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:42.079 to a reckoning with the rock that exists in their 306 00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:45.400 party that led a young man to murder someone in 307 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:48.720 front of his wife and child and two thousand college students, 308 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:51.279 it's too much for them. So instead they'll go to 309 00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:54.200 nine News's Facebook page and write nasty things about a 310 00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:56.519 guy who's dead and about children who don't have a father. 311 00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.920 Doesn't really seem like moral superior to me. But hey, 312 00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:05.200 nine News, you do you? When we get back, Fox 313 00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:08.680 thirty one's chief meteorologist Dave Fraser joins us, we're going 314 00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:11.319 to pepper him with questions about when we are going 315 00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:14.039 to get the first snowfall in Denver, the man who 316 00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.119 controls the weather here in the Denver Metro. No, I'm kidding, 317 00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.559 I'm kidding, Dave Fraser, Hi, buddy, welcome to the show. 318 00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:24.279 Hey there, I'm glad to be with you on this Wednesday. 319 00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:26.440 I can't believe you're making a rod wait for burles 320 00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:27.319 while we talk weather. 321 00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:30.240 Well we did at the end of the show, so 322 00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:32.599 you know, we'll start with you and then we'll end 323 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:36.119 with you know, beautiful women doing Halloween burlesque here in 324 00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:37.720 the studio. So we got a lot on our plate. 325 00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:41.680 I already have two standard questions that we have to 326 00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:44.720 ask every year at this time. First of all, Dave Frasier, 327 00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:47.799 when are you blowing out your sprinklers? 328 00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:49.680 Not yet? 329 00:18:50.200 --> 00:18:50.640 Now yet? 330 00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:53.440 My lawn looks fantastic, as do a lot of lawns 331 00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:54.440 that I see driving up. 332 00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:56.559 And down the front range, especially those that. 333 00:18:56.519 --> 00:18:59.079 Had benefited from rain. We had some decent showers last night, 334 00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:02.039 so I always pay attention to the forecast lows, and 335 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.599 when I start to see those lows being a little 336 00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:08.519 more consistent and closer to the freezing mark, I sometimes 337 00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:10.759 will just drain the external. 338 00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:12.440 Pipe so that that doesn't freeze. 339 00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:14.519 And crack, which is an easy thing to do, but 340 00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:17.079 may not blow them all out just yet. I'll wait 341 00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:19.200 until I see something it's going to be a little 342 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:22.240 more permanent. Remember, the sprinklers are way down. The lines 343 00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:24.880 are in the ground, so they're protected by the warm 344 00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:27.000 temperatures in the ground. It takes a while for cold 345 00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:29.599 to penetrate. But it's that external pipe that I'll keep 346 00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:31.880 an eye out. If I see a thirty two, thirty three, 347 00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:34.279 thirty four, I'll probably blow it out and maybe turn 348 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:35.960 them back on, because you know how we can ebb 349 00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:39.319 and flow in September and October, going from freezing nights 350 00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:41.200 to very warm stretches at times. 351 00:19:41.519 --> 00:19:44.279 So now let's ask question number two, which almost goes 352 00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:47.480 with question number one, but not really, Dave, when will 353 00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:50.279 the metro be getting our first measurable snowfall? 354 00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:54.839 Yeah, we get these kind of nips of fall in 355 00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:55.640 the morning. 356 00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:57.400 Like this morning, lovely this morning. 357 00:19:58.119 --> 00:19:59.039 Yeah, we're going to. 358 00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:00.279 Have more of that by the way. 359 00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:02.680 Moving forward, we'll have a few showers around tonight. Not 360 00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:04.640 a lot going on, but there will be some showers, 361 00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:06.599 and then we kind of enter a dry period. We'll 362 00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:09.759 have overnight lows right around forty eight to fifty, afternoon 363 00:20:09.799 --> 00:20:12.680 temperatures close to eighty degrees, which is about average, a 364 00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:14.759 couple of degrees above average. We've got a nice stretch 365 00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.160 of weather coming for the next seven to ten days. 366 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:20.559 Really going to feel like fall and warm temperatures at 367 00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:23.119 this time of the year. Seventy eight seventy nine, eighty degrees, 368 00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:25.920 like a warm blanket. It's not really heap by any means. 369 00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:28.200 You know, the question always comes up at the seventy. 370 00:20:28.000 --> 00:20:29.960 Year we start to look at the long range models. 371 00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.799 You know, Denver's average first snowfall measurable, which is a 372 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.279 tenth of an inch or more, is around the eighteenth 373 00:20:36.319 --> 00:20:40.799 of October. We're not obviously there yet. Last year we 374 00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:44.039 waited till November fifth before we got that first snowfall. 375 00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:46.079 And then back in twenty twenty one we had the 376 00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:49.640 latest first snowfall, which was December tenth. I think everybody 377 00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:51.359 remembers that one was like where's the snow? 378 00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:53.640 But I will tell you, Mandy, looking at some of 379 00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:54.920 the computer models and some. 380 00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:58.599 Of the prognostications of what might be coming. We've got 381 00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:02.519 warm Pacific waters to the west, We've got colder waters 382 00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:04.279 to the east, and what that does is kind of 383 00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:07.640 open up Canada to and the Arctic to kind of 384 00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:09.359 push cold air down our way. 385 00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:11.039 So we're thinking as we. 386 00:21:11.000 --> 00:21:14.319 Head into the winter that we may be Last year 387 00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:16.279 we kind of ebbed and flow with snow. We came 388 00:21:16.359 --> 00:21:19.160 up about eight to nine inches shy of the normal, 389 00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.039 which is fifty six for Denver, and we had bouts 390 00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:24.119 of snow, and then we had periods where it didn't snow. 391 00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:25.160 I think this year is going. 392 00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:26.519 To be a little more normal, and I do think 393 00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:26.960 we're going to. 394 00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:30.200 Get bouts of cold air that clipped northeast Colorado. Whether 395 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.680 or not it backs into Denver, we'll see, but certainly 396 00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:33.559 the northeast plains. 397 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:34.319 And I think once that. 398 00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:37.359 Cold air breaks free, because you've opened up the gates 399 00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:40.039 to the Arctic, it may stick around for long periods 400 00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:44.400 of time. So maybe, you know, November, Thanksgiving to Christmas 401 00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:46.319
