Looks like a white Christmas for me!!!

Merry Christmas everyone.

All the snow here melted today with the rain.
There is like a mess of slush everywhere right now.
It was going to be a white christmas, but now it doesn't seem likely.

Last night, there was about a foot of snow in our field. Today, it didn't rain... it POURED. Our creek sounded like Niagara Falls off in the distance. When we left for Rochester around 3 o'clock this afternoon, it was 50 degrees and there was no snow left. On the way back home, (70 mile trip), at least 25-30 miles of that trip was on a sheet of ice. There were white-out conditions from the blowing snow in a couple of areas; traffic (me and the car in front of me) was crawling along at about 15 mph for a long time. My wife freaked out when I finally passed that car.

I'm SOOooooo thankful that the temperatures dropped to the upper 20's. The beer and pop/soda are on the porch until our Christmas party on Tuesday. Gotta keep them cold!

we had the same weather here. there was plenty of snow on the ground but it poured for about 18 hours straight and it all melting. then overnight it turned to snow and we now have about 6 inches of snow again. i am glad cause i love white Christmas's. and the nice thing is even through it turned from rain to snow it happened so quickly that there was not a layer of ice on everything. it literally dropoed from 40 down to the teens in a hour. it was crazy. i have never seen it drop so fast in my life.

White stuff is due in Xmass Eve for the Colorado area. Still a few inches from last week left over on the ground.

Interesting change from Las Vegas.

Last time I remember a white Christmas in Portland was oh, about 18 years ago. I guess I've been out of town for the last 8 or so Christmas', so maybe I'm not an authority.

Yeah we got white on the ground here still...but no new snow yet. We'll technically have a white Christmas but it may not be any new snow out here.
