ice ice ice ice ice. my roof, my driveway, my porch, my yard, my road. my poor doggie is singing the blues! my ripple needs a walk, but she just slips and slides and spins! but we got only half of the predicted nightmare, thank goodness. tomorrow is snow day #3, which will keep us in school until memorial day for certain! but i learned today that it takes exactly 1 grateful dead NYE show to clean my entire house, top to bottom... it doesn't smell the same, but it takes the same amount of time...! tomorrow the wind and the cold are supposed to intensify- hope everyone's safe and warm- caroline

before it gets too unhappy........washedown wiffa coookie, o'course

Hey Ted I have found out the hard way that as soon as the temp goes below zero, your beer becomes very unhappy. Speaking of beer, they cancelled the Avalanche Blues game last night, had the DVR set and everything .. Stay safe out there!! I think we just may push above zero today here in CO. "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

With the current snow storm raging outside the window and the storms coming with every 3-4 days with temps avg. 20 -- this is not a normal winter. Nor are our summers. When heat gets trapped in the atmosphere and can't escape it turn's into moisture, thus, all of the aforementioned. It won't be this way every year but the oscillation depending on el nino/nina currents will become less dispersed. I ave always asked the question though, where did the titans of industry who created these greenhouse gasses believe they and their loved ones would be safe? I do love a good snowstorm though, no two flakes alike - just like deadheads!

Spring is just around the corner, according to the groundhog from Pennsylvania. Meanwhile most offices and all the schools are shut down in KC. -10 F tonight !! Might have to bring in the beer from the garage.

I second that Johnman! I whined about 20 degree weather here in South Texas...yeah, 20 degrees and clear skies. No Big Deal! Stay safe all you real winter sufferers!

I'm prayin' for all you folks on the eastern half of the country...hope things warm up soon!!

Traffic is diminishing to a crawl as the big storm intensifies. Not sure how long I'll stick around work this morning, with anywhere from 8" to 15+" forecast today in KC and into central MO.After the snow stops Wednesday, we'll have double digit minus F temps by Thursday!!

It was 76 degrees yesterday and my 1st grade class spent a wonderful afternoon outside working and playing. Today it's supposed to be 35 with a low of 19. Texas weather...sigh.
