Here comes the snow

[Paul Ryan]

Good for you guys, I hope the rest of the white stuff goes your way this winter. Have fun digging out. Is it suposed to get cold after the storm? Usually does here. We have already had 2 mornings when it was -15 air temp already. The 20's we have had the last couple of days almost feels like summer. Almost ready to get out the pool. Good luck stay warm.

It's been snowing here since I got up this morning. We're supposed to to be in the 12" - 18" range according to Accu-weather

I can recall two times that it snowed in my hometown when I was growing up. Both times it snowed just enough, and stuck around long enough, for my mother to make something she called "snow cream". It probably isn't safe to eat snow these days (it probably wasn't then but I survived) but if anyone wants to send me a big ol' Mason jar full of snow cream I be right obliged!

We've just dropped down into daytime highs in the upper 50s and got lots of wet stuff yesterday, but it was the melted kind.

It seems all the low pressure areas have moved south this year. Meaning Ohio and parts south are getting nailed.
1" here last night. Still haven't had to fire up the snow thrower.

Over a foot of snow and still going strong here. My back can already feel the effects of shoveling and I havent even started yet!!

Jim, I have a extra room you can stay in for the winter and a decent sized shop to play in

Welcome to winter! I put my studded snow tires on my company van Monday. I only had to wait 3 hours to have it done!

Aw, Ken, you don't really get snow down there, do you? Up here in Spokane we look at Lewiston as being right smack in the banana belt.

Getting blasted here. I've seen a fair amount of snow, but I've never seen snow like this. It's very deceptive. Last night it was very fine flakes, not blizzard like, just steady fine flakes. I cleaned the walk and my truck, went inside, came out about 5 minutes later, you couldn't see anything I did. Brushed it all back off the truck, cleaned the sidewalk. 5 minutes later. Covered. I rode to the dump and it hadn't started snowing. Literally 15 minutes later, the roofs on houses were starting to get covered, yet if you stood out in it, it seemed like it was hardly snowing.

We're at the 12-18" level now in this area, with probably another 8-10" on the way. If I heard the numbers right, this may be the biggest mid December snowfall in our city's recorded weather history. If not, it's in the top few.

Here's a pic a friend who lives just outside of DC just posted on another forum a few minutes ago, lookin' pretty nasty down there. Not a single flake here in the lower Hudson Valley yet but a really big flock of Canadian geese just landed on the river (and I suppose they'll be leaving their usual presents on the riverwalk!):

Here is one from Baltimore. Shot from the front door.

18" and still getting hammered (with snow that is). Ok the novelty has definitely worn off of this stuff now. Oh well got a warm shop, 10 pen kits and 4 dry bowls to finish turn so what the heck right!!

[Scott Shepherd]

Seconds half of the storm never did anything today. Started out, but then just died. No accumulation throughout the day today, so far, which is good. I'm tired of digging front wheel drive cars out of the snow.

Here in central WV we got about a foot. Worst thing it was a wet sticky snow and it has broke down a lot of trees. My electricity went off around 7am and it probably won't be on for a few days. I had to go get some gas for the generator this afternoon and the road was covered with tree, someone had used a chain saw and had a one way road through them. The last time something like this happened we were without electric for a week.

We don't have snow in Kentucky, but we don't have our NYC kid (30) home either. He has been cancelled 3 times (3 days).

Wife is torn up.
