Hi Michele-- You're welcome to some snow, if you can figure a way to get it there... we've got umm more than enough! I couldn't tell from your post if you're missing the snow... or preferring the warmth, or maybe a little of both?? For me, only like the Spring once there's been enough snow to really feel like it's been winter. Not going to be a problem this year!

Garth, great picture! Snow looks like it's finally stopped here... but we did have a few spells where it looked impenetrable, like that. Wow. We're in the suburbs so there's plenty of places to put the stuff if the plows can just get around to clearing all the streets. The complications of a big storm like this are really magnified being in the city, huh? They were saying on the 11:00 news last night that Boston already had 4' drifts and that was BEFORE the real blizzard part of the storm hit.

Hi October!... Y'know I wouldn't trade places with you. I'm one of those crazy people who love wild weather like this... (though it does help to have the driveway plowed!! --we pay for every 3 inches of snow so don't even want to think what this storm is going to cost!) The past 24 hours has been a blast... and the kids'll remember it the rest of their lives.

Hi Sharon, you must be socked in down there in RI! Surprised your cats even want to go out in this... mine are content to watch it from the window and purr! We just got back in from a couple of hours of shoveling too... the plow does the main driveway, but we've still got to dig out the garage doors, front walk and mailbox (ugh!) ourselves. I'd guess we had about 2 feet --but the wind and drifts make it pretty impossible to tell for sure. Lucky for our dog, the wind hollowed at a little area 15'x3' behind the garage where there's actual grass poking through, everywhere else she's swimming in the snow and does NOT like it! Is it still snowing by you?
