Man! It's snowing here in Michigan already! 2-5 in. expected... :( That's just... well... craptastic is the only word that comes to mind! :mad2:

Oh well, time to switch the full coverage to "storage"..... (after a few runs with the new S/chrg that is)!

P.S. East coast guys... it's coming your way!

Nelson Muntz: "Haaa haaa!".

Seriously! It snowed here beginning of October, but November has been warmer than October. All the snow is gone!

But if you you've lived here long enough you know - if you get the good weather, sooner or later you have to pay the piper!

Drive safe everyone!It's because of the "cold air mass coming down from Canada.." the weatherman says! Put a cap on that will ya!! Strike a match or something!!! Geesh! :)

Yea what he said.

We deserve it for what we went thru in Aug-Sept.

Almost(but not quite) makes you forget about what happened here.

No problemo. I'll roll the windows down when I warm up the CV this afternoon, K?

Just North of us, the temps are in the -30 range, but we're under the effect of the 'Pineapple Express'. Warm air from the mid pacific ;)

Absolutely not !!! You still have little ones and it's a great excuse to get out and play in the white stuff. Make sure you call "dibs" on the Flexible Flyer. :D

Chicago's first snow of the '04 Winter. Guess it had to happen sooner, or, later, eh? But, I'd feel much better if my Patches wasn't 60 miles from home...

I pretty much drove my Astro home from work today ~ideways. Between the hilly streets going thru St Charles and the snow covering the freezing slush. Traction was hard to find along with the fact that the Astro tries to unload all of it's earth shattering torque all at once and thru 1 wheel. Felt like a Sprint Car Driver today!
Guess it's Artic Cat time again. And Have a Happy Turkey Day everyone...

Bah! "cold air mass coming down from Canada.." It's not from here, it's those guys from the prairies (like Dr Caleb) sending that cold stuff to you! :D

Same here, north of you, in Toronto. Their calling for about 2in, throughout the day tomorrow, but most of it will melt on the ground. I, for one am not looking forward to it. I have to drive the MM Thursday and Friday, and won't be able to put the snows on, until the weekend. :bigcry:

We had 6" of snow here about two weeks ago. Since then its been unusually warm. Supposed to rise into the high 50s ovenight, then drop into 30's by noon with snow. Just hoping I don't get stuck for a 32 hr shift tonight...

LOL...yeah I know how that is......over here last week we had no more than one half inch of snow while temperatures never dropped below 33 degrees and they poured sand all over the roads everywhere you look.:rolleyes:

Oh My!! LOL! I know, I drove through Jackson last night... but we got 9 inches here in GR! I hope it's all melted by next weekend though... big trip planned to Alternative Auto.... :)

One inch over night. Didn't stick to the roads, but left the landscape and bare tree limbs in the most wonderfull ice covered glistening glow. Really looked cool, and made for a seriously picturesque drive through the woods to grandmas house.

Now I know what I missed....I really do enjoy some winter. SOME winter.:rolleyes:

Yeah, I was silly Wednesday myself. :loco:

I didn't want to drive the MM, took the Bullitt instead, good thing there wasn't any real traffic, I don't have snowshoes for the Bullitt. :hankie:

Next time the big bad MM will tackle the snow. Oh, BTW our weatherman says it's coming Sunday evening into Monday.:mad2:
