Way to go - Hubby!! :D
The last prediction I heard was "at least 20 inches." We'll post some pictures maybe tomorrow, when it's supposed to taper off! :eek: Miss Hoppy went out earlier today, but when her front two feet sunk into the snow, she gave up and went back into the house in disgust! :)
It;s very drifty-blowy snow, too, and our street had not yet been plowed AT ALL, but our new Honda CRV went right up the hille just fine!
Sara,
That's exactly what happened to us. The counties directly south of us have snow emergencies and we got like an inch and a half. Sucks doesn't it? I was all set for a 2 hour delay today and no such luck! lol
Molly, if you lived in NJ you would have a few days off, not just a delay! But - - - you would be spending those days SHOVELING!!! ARGH!!!! We have been taking turns all day and I have muscles that are aching that I didn't even know I had. Pictures to follow in the morning (of our labors - not my muscles :rolleyes: ) Be careful what you wish for Molly and Sara!! Karen we'll be looking for your pictures, and I am also the proud owner of a CRV. I know it is going to do just fine in all of this mess, but fortunately I have stocked with food, etc. and have no need to go out. :)
January 1998....
We had just moved into our new house when we had --- in a matter of hours ---28 inches of snow...

We live two blocks from an expressway. We walked over to look and it ....NO cars at ALL!!!
It was a weekend -- the New Year's weekend actually -- so no time off!
OK I have no car!!! I hate this!! And if Dr. Sova thinks I'm coming into work tomorrow he's got another thing comin!!

Poor car!! lol Is it still snowing?? I know, I know, I'm a glutton for punishment! hehehehe
We had been missingout...not snow at all here, until today!!! We finally got about 5 inches!!! My girls were LOVING it!!!
Molly-I'm surprised you had school today. Most the school's here were closed for Pres. Day
OH no, it's far more important to celebrate MLK day than President's day. I think we should have both off, but our school board in its infinite wisdom doesn't see it that way.
I see :) I think school's here get MLK day too...seems like they are always off for something :)
This is priceless! Edwina looks like quite the brave soul! My two boys have never had their little kitty paws ever touch snow. They are impressed! :cool:Quote:

Well, it finally started snowing about 5 AM this morning. You must know that I live north of Burlington, only about 1 1/2 hr. from the Canadian border and very near NY state. We often get weather conditions the same as Montreal or northern NY, rather than Burlington. I also live on one of the islands in Lake Champlain, tossing in another weather condition factor.
Anyway, right behind this front is another storm coming on Wednesday. Yipee. We love the snow here and are prepared for it ... well, I love the snow, I cannot speak for others.
We are all looking forward to temperatures above freezing!
So no shovels for us right now. I surely hope everyone south of us has found the path to the street and that the snowplow has arrived at least once!:cool:
As soon as I heard the news about the snow in Boston, I thought about you, Karen, knowing how much you love it. Well, looks like you got it!!! :eek: Hey, congratulations on the new car!!! Sounds like you got it just in time!!!! :)Quote:

It was amazing! Paul came out at 1 am last night to tell me to go inside! I was still shoveling, it was still snowing! He took some pictures, there are snow piles taller than me! :)
We just got a bunch of rain dumped on us. But, most of it was gone for the weekend! Too bad we were in Mississippi were it rained all weekend, and on Monday when we left to come back here, some snow was starting to fall out of the sky there. I'm just shocked at some of the pics I've seen though of some of the snow places fell! Good thing with our traveling we didn't get any!
its now been snowing for 2 days strait and isnt suposed to stop for a while still! if u look outside, you cant see anything its snowing so strong! it looks like your in a cloud!
Oh ya..... there is hail too!:eek: :eek:
After 3 hours of digging, we got my son's car out!

Here it sits in the nice cleared off driveway, all ready to drive to work tomorrow! I sure hope this is the last storm this season!

Well, we got somewhere over 27 inches, but it was very drifty snow, and strong winds, so there's no sure place in the yard to measure!!!!
Sorry no pictures yet, now it's snowing again!:eek: :cool: :D
We got 24 inches! Its funny seeing things packed with snow when a day ago you saw them snow-free!
I was listening to the Notre Dame basketball game tonight and they said that it was the smallest crowd that they had played in front of this season, but they oked it since in some parts of the mountains in West Virginia had 40 inches of snow with this blizzard.
