Haha, nice.

We got a good dump last week, but not that much. D:

It could not have happened to a better bunch.

Well deserved in my opinion.

Now get out there and shovel.

And careful not to get a hearth attack. At your age you got to be careful.

LOL

It is sorta fun... except for the snow removal. I had to shovel my dog's pen out four times last night just so she could get out to do her business and not be totally buried.


another picture for good measure:

Lake Effect snow means she's around the Great Lakes.

The wind whips west -> east along the lakes and picks up their moisture then dumps it on the lands to the east of the lakes.

Every winter I would like to have one big snow that would last for a week or two at most.....



But it doesn't snow in enough Texas

Have a friend who lives in Plano. He misses the snow terribly.

 

[IceBergSLiM]

no thanks. The only time that kind of cold and snow is welcome is on a snowboarding trip.

At least that far north there's a chance of the snow sticking. We were supposed to get .5-1" of snow here last week but just like usual the storms parted around Austin and I only got a few flurries that melted before it even got to the ground.

You guys are typically snow covered all winter long correct?

You must not be in the right part of West By God, the town my mother is from averages 160 inches of the stuff a year.

Last year we had snow from two days before Halloween until March. This is our first sticking/staying snow of the year this winter. November was quite mild.

 

[aircooled]

I like having one or two snows per year (typical here), but unfortunately we get ice rather than snow too many times.
I'm not a winter person.

Yea... that's the way it works for central texas.

The northern part of texas (anything north of dallas) gets their fair share of snow every year. Hell even the area around Houston gets more snow than central texas does.

Go figure, we had 3-4 inches on the ground here in Virginia last Sunday.
