For centuries, the Rocky Mountains have captivated humans with their jagged peaks, magnificent waterfalls, and serene alpine lakes. However, millions of years ago visitors to this area would have been greeted with a drastically different view, as hundreds of feet of ice blanketed this land. When these glaciers that once dominated Colorado retreated, they created the awe-inspiring landscapes we revel in today.
The cooler and wet pattern of the past week continues over the southeast quadrant of Colorado Thursday.
Showers are continuing during the early morning hours before a break around mid-morning until the early afternoon.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop later in the afternoon, continuing into the evening, with some storms reaching the severe range. Large hail – up to half-dollar size – will be possible, along with wind gusts that may exceed 60 miles per hour.
My understanding is that this film is not a straight adaptation of Stephen King’s “Dark Tower” book series, but rather a sort of sequel that cherry-picks elements of the anthology. I’m convinced the film was conceived as a writing exercise by at least one of its four credited screenwriters who wanted to tell the story of how a cowboy with a revolver could defeat a demon with one of the greatest arsenals of powers ever created. Now we have to suffer the results of that fan fiction gone wrong.

A horse residing in Larimer County has been diagnosed with West Nile Virus; this is Colorado's first confirmed case of WNV in a horse in 2017. This index case was diagnosed by Colorado State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory in Fort Collins on August 02, 2017.
Vaccines in horses have proven to be a very effective prevention tool. Horses that have been vaccinated in past years need an annual booster shot. If an owner did not vaccinate their animal in previous years, the horse will need the two-shot vaccination series within a three to four-week period.
