A member of the Golden Garden Club alerted us at our monthly meeting yesterday: local TV channels in the Front Range are forecasting over five inches of snow on the overnight. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but many trees (like our crabapples in the backyard) still have somewhat green leaves still attached.
If the meteorologists are correct, we will wake up tomorrow morning with tree limbs bowed or broken by the heavy snow. And the morning commute will be long and difficult.
For the trees, we have been most successful in knocking the snow down with a broom. Be sure to stand to the side of the branch you are working on so you don't get a face full of snow or a snapped branch to the head.
