In case you forgot, today is May 10. Some things are weird for this time of year, like Christmas carols or snow. Well, unless you live in Denver, because it snowed there today and Coors Field — the home of the Colorado Rockies — was covered this morning.
"Wow" is not to be confused with, "Whoa."

The storm was documented on Instagram by Rockies reliever LaTroy Hawkins and Denver Broncos linebacker DeMarcus Ware. If you didn’t know any better, you’d think it was the middle of January in Colorado.
Not only is the snow storm strange, it’s also a huge inconvenience, as the Rockies host the Los Angeles Dodgers later today. The good news is that since this is Denver, fields covered in snow is pretty common, so the snow removal is already underway.
Don't worry, we've played ball on these days before. Right, @Mets & @Braves?

Bad weather has been a constant during this weekend’s Rockies-Dodgers series, as there was a rain delay during the first game of the series on Friday which led to the two teams’ Twitter accounts squaring off in a game of tic-tac-toe.
