The altitude and low humidity result in clean air and relatively mild weather year round. Occasional late-afternoon thunder showers are common from July through September, and snow usually first occurs in mid-October, and is heaviest December through March. The snow, which averages just under 100 inches per year, generally melts off rather quickly. The city experiences about 300 days of sunshine annually.
