It never got over 49 here today. I know, not as cold as some of ya'll, and definitely no ice falling, but for us on Thanksgiving, that's downright cold!

I don't know whether Buffalo New York made national news or not, but the southtowns got over 3 feet of snow. Word is that around 1000 people were stuck on the New York State Thruway, and some are still there...24 hours later. This is Western New York, and snowstorms aren't a surprise. But why emergency evacuation plans aren't in place to prevent this, is beyond me. Here is one of many pictures from South Buffalo. Even if the person could dig their car out, you can see that the streets aren't plowed! When cars are allowed to park on both sides of a street, and a storm like this hits, the plows can't get down the streets. Buffalo is a complete mess right now!! I live 25 miles East of Buffalo, and we got a total of probably a foot of snow. Yesterday it was water soaked snow, so each shovelful probably weighed 20 pounds...so tiring! And you can't use a snowblower with that wet stuff. Last night we got maybe 6 more inches, but it was powdery and much easier to manage.

Oh, Huk, I remember that heavy wet snow down east and am glad we are now in light, fluffy, powdery snow country. This morning we had frozen fog which left our bare trees with a beautiful coating.

Our weather yesterday was plain nasty. Hard, hard rain that started around 2:30 and went through most the night. When I left this morning at 6:30 to take Caleb to the lab, we were met with thick fog. I can count on one hand the number of times we've had fog here, not a fun time driving to the lab, to get Caleb breakfast, and then to drop him off at school! And then it all cleared up and we had a beautiful day. I don't think it got over 60, but clear blue skies and it was nice enough to open a couple windows for a while.

We have blanket of about four - five inches of snow on the ground from the weekend. It is COLD -- single digits - twenties. Up to 32 degrees on Thursday and Friday. Then more snow on Saturday. It is suddenly winter. It was sixty-five degrees the Monday before Thanksgiving.

It was 32 degrees this morning in my area of Florida. This is entirely wrong!

Great sympathy for Twiggs, knowing her house is not insulated like the ones that regularly see cold and knowing Florida people don't really have winter clothes. There there, Twiggyish. Temp dropped to 68 after dark here in South Texas.

I'm in the 'burbs west of Chicago. Cold now (9 degrees F) and cold tomorrow. We have snow, but nothing like where my BFF lives in NW Indiana. Tonight Nightline did a segment on weather there. SNOW! Yikes.
