Snow snow snow....

We're having a very mild winter this year. I think we had 1-2 weeks of winter in October , then we got fall weather.

I like the snow.. when it's for photos and I can look out the window at how pretty it is.. But, when it takes four men to get my car out of the parking spot because of snow it's not nearly as fun... and ofcourse being cold.. I hate being cold.. hmm... Okay, I like taking photos of snow and then looking and thinking their pretty I don't think i'm cut out for living in it..

Me too! And the older I get, the less I like it!

About 18" here now, reports say possibly up to another 12 by the end of tomorrow!!

Where are you. Man I wish I was there. All of our lovely snow has turned into freezing rain and sleet. Depressing. No work today, but also nothing to do either.

That is about the same as here. Perhaps we live in sister cities and never even knew it.

Good to see you have some snow.

We don't have snow, and I'm blaming the global warming conspiracy; especially the bloody Hippies.

Hippies are behind it, in cahoots with the Third Reich. I did some research on Al Gore's internet; the ****s invented Volkswagens and the Hippies keep them going, especially the Kombis. Millions of miles a year! They have ways of keeping them on the road, despite their age. In Mexico they still make new VWs I think.

"Hitlers revenge" they are called and not for nothing either. Now, its a scientific fact, incontestible, each single VW, around the globe --everywhere-- has that weird air-cooled engine. Bam. Heats up the air directly. Not like other engines with radiators. We always laughed at that stupid engine, little did we know! Treachery! Now it won't snow here where I live at all. VW.

I love the snow - but not when it is accompanied by 30-40 mph winds. Everything is closed today. Sorry, no photos, I'm not going outside for anything. It is a good day to stay inside nice and warm and work on sports photos.

Maybe we will get some out of this yet. It is pushing Jan and my snowshoes have not been wet yet. I love to get out in it and take photos. great opportunities.

This morning the storm has let up a bit. We got about 2 feet in 24 hours. Biggest storm since 2003.

Wow. I've seen the weather reports about snow over Finland, but didn't know it's that much!

We have too much rain. Roads have been floodet past weeks & last night a road collapsed.

Hopefully it's heading our way.

Here are a couple pics from this morning. Just outside, and one of my car.

It's already here. We're getting rain and I know why. I fixed my snowblower this year so we in Chicago are guaranteed no snow until it breaks again.
