Getting ready for 10-15cm of snow and then freezing rain for tonight and tomorrow. I just might not, go into work in the morning.

They are calling for the coldest winter in decades. It is only minus 4 here though... 25 degrees fahrenheit? Here on West Coast Canada it has been snowing steadily during this morning. It is now around a foot deep of light fluffy snow with a sheet of ice underneath. this is my view out of my livingroom window.

Beautiful picture sunshyne. We are at 19 here and its cold that just goes right through you. We are waiting for a storm to reach us with snow and freezing rain....it is to be in the 40's tomorrow, so lets hope that we dont' get too much of the nasty ice rain. Snow I can handle, but the ice rain I cannot.

stillllllll snowing! But the good thing is that I have rented a Dodge Caliber and was about 90% convinced that it was THE CAR for ME! until today. It SUX in the snow. I actually fishtailed around a corner while going the incredibly fast speed of 20 kilo an hr. that is like ten miles an hr!! then i got STUCK in my driveway. I've lived here since 91 and had three vehicles. NEVER have i got stuck and could not get out no matter what I did. Finally poured HOT water around the front wheels and Gunned it. Yes, the car is Finally in the carport.

We now have about 4 inches of snow on the ground and the cars and houses. Just enough to be pretty but still be easy to get around in.

We have 8" of snow where we are. At least it's a whopping 23 degrees which is much better than the 9 degrees we had on Friday. My daughter is very sad not to be able to go out and play in the snow but she has to wait until the doctor can take off her bandages and then he has to give the ok for outside playing. One thing we can count on for certain here in MN. I will snow many times more between now and the end of April. She'll have lots of other chances to play.

We got a bit of snow, but now we have the freezing rain. Checked the road this morning and you can skate on it if you wanted too...so I guess no church this morning and no company this afternoon It is still 23 degrees (-5C) so it needs to warm up a lot before this ice starts to melt.

For the first time ever there are hurricane flags flying on both the Oregon and Washington coasts.

Yes, we have cold, little bit of snow, freezing rain...generally yucky. I count myself lucky though. We watch Detroit news stations often and hear them closing schools 'cause of snow, but doesn't happen here. Sometimes they will have much more snow than us...inches and inches and we get a dusting. London, too. All the weather seems to stop at the river and then jump and goes to London..

Sunshyne, great picture! But oh, my, about your snow and ice--and more snow! (You, too, Tess!) Boy, my warmth-seeking hubby would just die if he had to deal with your weather.
We have been having sleet on and off since this morning. Today (IMO) is the first real under-your-longjohns kinda cold here (wind and dampness). It's 34F now but feels like 28. And we're going out into this mess in a bit (movies and dinner).
Uh, Eggie, 50 is freezing?!!!

The snowstorm out my window is so pretty this song came to mind: WHITE CHRISTMAS I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten, and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white

I just love that song! I already caught the movie once when it was on TV Thanksgiving weekend. Very dark and gloomy here all day today. It was 48 degrees this morning and is down to 36 now. The rain still continues to come down. Temperatures are supposed to keep falling. I wish it wasn't still so wet so that things don't all ice up again tonight!

ok I got out my grandpa's yardstick and measured. it is 16 1/2 inches since yesterday. I'm west coast Canada. this is extremely rare to have such light fluffy deep snow. Often we get a few snowfalls of a few inches of slushy slippery snow....which promptly disappears in a few days when the rains come back. If It keeps snowing I'll have no view at all LOL Darn ornamental trees.
