    Here we go again - Major snow storm - prayers please!

    Well, the weather guy just said tomorrow afternoon we will start getting what will be 4 to 7 inches of snow or more. (8 or 9 in some areas) Not usually anything we can't handle but this will be the wet, heavy snow. The kind that likes to stick to power lines and tree branches and cause power outtages.

    It will hit lots of areas that are still without power from the ice storm and may cause problems for all of us.

    Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I'm keeping everyone in mine as this storm will be a major pain for not only us, but lots of the country for days to come.

    White Christmas? Bah Humbug!!! I want a sunny warm one!!!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Keeping all of you in mind !

    The bichon rescue, for which I foster, is based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They have a clinic where they house the puppy mill rescues until they can get vetted, acclimated and sent to their foster homes. The whole place has been without water or power since Monday! (They use wells and no power means no pumps.) Most of the staff have neither power nor water at home, either. 21 new puppy mill rescues arrived three days prior to the storm, so they have a lot going on.

    Hoping it gets better for all of you.

    Boy, that's rough. We had a brief ice storm here in OH last week; my son got caught in it and had to spend the night where he was. He was lucky to be able to find a room close by. The weather warmed up the next morning, though, and the ice melted, thank goodness. But I've been through enough of them to know how dangerous they are not to mention inconvenient. We had a big one years ago on moving day and aside from the fact that we couldn't budge, all the cars and moving trucks froze. What a fun day that was! We'll keep the prayers going that Ma Nature gets over her snit and gives you a break out there.....
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I never belive the weather people anymore.
    So far this winter there's been 3 times that they "sounded the alarm"
    WOOP WOOP WOOP... HUGE HUGE SNOW STORM COMING OUR WAY!!!


    Then we get nothing...

    WAHHHH I want snow! STOP teasing me already!

    Yesterday we were supposed to have up to 3/4 of an inch of ice.
    Sleet fell from the sky for about 3 hours and it amounted to nothing!

    Again... today on the news...

    WOOP WOOP WOOP... MAJOR SNOW STORM COMING OUR WAY.
    They say we will have 8-10 inches on the ground by Sunday evening.
    The Browns play at home this weekend and they expect it to be snowing like crazy through the entire game.

    I'll belive it when I see it!

    momoffuzzyfaces... you can send ALL your snow to my house in North East Ohio! I'd love to have it!

    momoffuzzyfaces- Good luck! I hope you don't get too much snow. I'm not sure where you live in Kansas, but it sounds like you get a lot of our weather after it passes through. Luckily we haven't gotten any ice so far. Snow isn't as bad a ice.

    You can have ALL of mine! Thank goodness we haven't had a major snow yet (we got about 6 feet altogether last year!), but so far we've had about 10". Luckily it's been melting in between snows but it's snowing right now and I want my sunshine back!

    Well, now that's what happened: you storm got confused and ended up in Kansas!!!

    We had a bit of a suprised this morning. When we woke up we had frozen fog on the trees. Seldom ever see that. Strange Strange winter, even for KS.

    Here are two pics I took this morning. All that white stuff is from the fog.

    Oh, MOFF ... more snow is not what you need right now ... (((HUGS))) and prayers. We are supposed to get it on Sunday. It is cold out today but bright and sunny, so I'll take it. Bright and sunny is good.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    Thanks. That's my favorite one too. It's my cherry tree that's by the front porch. I took it before it got really light because I didn't want a glare.

    Looks like hairy spider legs, eh?

    Well I hope the weather man is wrong and you don't get a big storm.

    I love the way freezing fog looks. We had some last year and I got a couple pictures like the 2nd one you posted, but I totally LOVE that first one! I never thought about getting up close pictures. Thanks for posting those!

    Wow, that is terrible for the animals & the Clinic staff. Prayers for
    everyone in this storm's path. Hope you get spared from the worst case
