[Cinder & Smoke]

THIS is how we Welcome Spring to Ohio??

From the National Weather Service this afternoon:
"LOW PRESSURE MOVING UP THE OHIO VALLEY TUESDAY WILL SPREAD
HEAVY SNOW ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY AND TUESDAY EVENING.
THE SNOW SHOULD START AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER 6 AM AND CONTINUE
UNTIL TAPERING TO FLURRIES TUESDAY EVENING.

TOTAL ACCUMULATION FOR THE STORM IS EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM
6 TO 10 INCHES WITH THE HEAVIER TOTALS EXPECTED IN AREAS
FROM YOUNGSTOWN TO AROUND MEADVILLE PENNSYLVANIA."

Oh Joy!!

We here in the Eastern end of Pennsylvania are expecting the same thing (but a few inches less.) The kids are not holding their breath that they'll get a snow day tomorrow... but I WOULD love one last snow for the year!

Yep, we're awaiting the snow here too!!
I know 4 little creatures who will have fun in it

I'm not the least bit surprised though--the Spring Breakers came back yesterday, and we always get a storm when they return.

Wow! More snow, I give up we aren't going to get anymore. Lindsey my daughter went to Pa, to visit with her fiancees dad about a couple months ago. She went so she could see the snow. Fell in love with the snow. She had a blast up there. So I guess I better not tell her about you people getting snow in Pa and Ohio, she will be wanting to leave me again.

We have just been getting a little rain is all..a little on the cool side but all in all pretty mild.

It was so nice today that when we heard that on the TV, I looked at Carl and said "Is tomorrow April 1st?" I couldn't believe that they are talking that much snow! Well, it wouldn't be the first time they were wrong.....or is that wishful thinking. But then again I was gone to Texas (oh, how I miss my baby) when most of the snow came and Carl is home to shovel....

I don't want snow!

[trayi52]

Alright everybody, I'll be a good sport and volunteer Tennessee for this snow! Hehehe, I been wanting more snow anyway!!

I'll pipe in a day late. Yesterday was my 50th birthday, my sister flew in last Thursday from California to spend a few days celebrating with me. We received 13" of snow throughout the day yesterday. She was so worried she wouldn't get to fly out this morning, we left the house almost 3 hours before flight time to make sure she got to the airport on time.

Weather people said the storm was: the largest snowfall on that date in history; the most snow ever received in the month of March in Iowa and the third largest snowfall ever for Iowa since they started recording.

Now is that a way to celebrate your 50th birthday?!? When I go "Over the Hill" I go in a big way!

We did get pretty much snow, but as you said it didn't live up to all the hype (thank goodness ).
