COLORADO SNOW!!!!

LAST STORM OF THE SEASON OR THE FIRST?

While some parts of the nation experience record setting heat, Denver today had the opposite problem. The high temperature as measured at Denver International Airport reached a mere 64 degrees. This was two degrees below the previous record low maximum temperature of 66 degrees for this date set in 1925 and previous years. That is also an amazing 24 degrees below the normal temperature for this time of year!

The unseasonably cold weather has also brought an unusual sight to the Colorado mountains in July - snow! Some northern parts of the Rocky Mountains in the state above 12,000 feet received a couple inches of snow.

SHARK TIME....NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH SARKA



Thursday, July 23rd saw the beginnings of a pumping south swell -- and a white shark spotted about 300 yards off Malibu. This is on the heels of many sightings at both San O and Sunset Beach in LA. Says shark expert Ralph Collier: "Although it would appear that there is an increase in the number of shark encounters, this could be an artifact of simply more individuals reporting observations and not necessarily an increase in the shark/ocean user populations. However, there appears to be an increase in the number of events at specific locations, Sunset and San Onofre State Beaches, and possibly the same individual sharks being involved in these events at these sites. We could have juvenile and/or sub-adult White Sharks utilizing specific sites for feeding as these incidents appear to increase during Grunion spawns."
