    I dare say that 12" in Texas is on a par with 24" in the Northeast. Especially as you see snow so seldom.

    I'm getting for a "mid-wester" -- 6 to 10 inches headed for Chicago late Sunday into early Monday. I'd prefer six over ten!
    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!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I refuse to discuss it. I just cleared the deck for the first time in over a week and made a path from the driveway to the deck. There is more predicted here, too, on Monday evening (when we'll be driving to a concert in Delaware!). I'm just NOT going to think about it...."I'll think about that TOMORROW"

    I heard a mix or all rain. Please Lord - spare us.

    At least it's supposed to be in the 40's for the next 5 days. Lots more melting - to freeze to solid ice every night. Still no bare spots in the yard yet, and the mountains of snow in parking lots and along side the roads from the plows, will still be here in April at this rate.

    They are saying 3 - 6 here in S.E. Michigan. I decided to do my grocery shopping today - maybe that will mean we only get an inch on Monday

    Our next system is supposed to be rain, Monday into Tuesday. Hopefully not too much...I don't feel like having to suck up water in our basement. I hope those of you in for the snow don't get hit too hard. Just remember, anything under 45" in 2 storms a couple days apart is a piece of cake! LOL!

    They're forcasting freezing rain and then rain overnight tonight into tomorrow. That means there will be a lot of flooding for the Pittsburgh area over the next couple of days. The rivers will rise and some low-lying communities could be hit. Pittsburgh won't be looking forward to that!

    Oh no, I hate to hear that. I know a couple people in the area who have already been devastated by past floodings.

    I hope it doesn't get too bad.

    The amount of time the rain is going to fall over here and the predicted amount wouldn't be too bad if there wasn't 45-50" of snow melting out there and still 8" or so left on lawns and mounds upon mounds on the sides of roads and in parking lots.

    I wait and look out the window. I swear these meoteorologists are over paid and totally under-trained. I don't think I've seen one "on the money" weather report in my 5 years back from Michigan!!

    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    Oh boy - oh boy. Do you believe it?????

    Yet another Nor'easter for us on Thursday - blizzard conditions - 60 mph winds. What the devil is going on here? Haven't we had just about enough???? And I was enjoying today's rain since it was taking out some of the snow.

    I think I'll just hibernate like a bear until Spring gets here.

    Thursday could be interesting. We're supposed to fly to Canada at 7am. Weather right now is looking dicey. Keep your fingers crossed this thing turns another direction.

    You and plans and snowstorms - just don't mix.

    Want snow??? - just have Maggie and Coop make plans for a party or to travel and you'll be sure to get some.

    When did you say you're planning the next PT Gathering???? Your track record is getting scary! :

    I think they are saying this one is going to be a Nor'Western storm???
    For us, they aren't promising an accumulation prediction...it could be 6+" (PLEASE!) or 12+" (NO!)
    It's going to last from Wednesday eve/night into Friday sometime.
    I'm trying not to listen to the weathermen sensationalizing it.
    I'm just praying we get through it like the last ones. This one shouldn't be as bad snow accumulation wise but the winds could be worse than those.
    It's sounding like it isn't going to snow every minute of the time the storm is in the area.

    I'm hoping' and wishin' that it'll track way North and out to see and not give these PA/MD/DE/NJ areas another pounding.

    We certainly HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!! I was hoping we were out of the woods. When the heck is this stupid EL NINO causing these systems going to be over with????
