Odd Winter Weather Strikes Across U.S.
Saturday, January 06, 2007

DENVER — January got off to a strange start in the U.S. as temperatures crept toward 70 degrees in the northeast, Colorado dug out of its third snowstorm in as many weeks, and four died in weather-related incidents in Louisiana and California.

The Denver area was blanketed with up to 8 inches of snow Friday in yet another major snowstorm, while nearly a foot fell in the foothills west of the city before the storm moved into New Mexico.

The mid-Atlantic, however, was expected to experience temperatures rivaling or surpassing Southern California.

High temperatures were expected to reach 70 in parts of New Jersey today, while on the other side of the country, highs in the upper 60s were expected for Los Angeles and San Diego.

Warm weather in New England and a complete lack of snow are causing problems for winter-related businesses. Private snowplow operators have nothing to plow and even towing firms that help out after accidents are seeing less business.
