Slammed with snow...

[Dakota's Mommy]

I miss snow so much! My parents are always telling me about them getting a bunch here and a bunch there, but obviously we don't get the same weather here in Texas as they do in Ohio. As for us, we've been having 60-70 degree weather the majority of the time. It seems like it cools down to somewhere between 30 to 50 for a couple of days, and then it jumps right back up in the digits. What's up with that? I miss my snow, I can't wait to go back to Ohio!

No snow in SC either, but it has been cold. Brrrrrrrrrrr

Hope you all are warm and safe!!! Post pictures of your dogs in the snow! I know they love it! Mine will chase the snowflakes on the rare occasion that we get snow!!

This from the weather news today. Note the amount of snow they are writing about.

Plunging temperatures across the UK are bringing ice and snow to areas already suffering from recent floods. The abrupt change in the weather brought two to three inches of snow on Saturday to areas of Kent, which was among the counties worst affected by flooding earlier this week. Police said the cold snap had led to more than a dozen crashes across Kent in a matter of hours on Saturday, although none were fatal. A van slid off the A59 near York and on to a railway line below, but no-one was hurt. Inspector Mark Baldwin, of Kent Police, said main roads in the area were "a no-no". "Ideally people should not go anywhere," he said. "Wait and see what the weather is like. People are just not used to driving in the snow and they are driving really badly."
Already, hilly areas in the north of England, north Wales and Scotland have had up to five inches of snow as a result of the cold arctic air. The AA has reiterated the police warning about dangerous driving conditions. A spokesman said: "People should drive slowly and carefully and be cautious of black ice, particularly if they are going out early."

HOW TRUE CHRIS!!! Three flakes and the whole country falls apart at the seams!! I get sooooo annoyed -

Snow? Here? Yea, right!
We actually have hot weather, with strong winds today....they have really caused a lot of damage accross the entire state.

My step-dad's train was even derailed....praise God he drove in to work today...people have died and there are many, many injuries. It's terrible.

Ugh!!! I love snow--but it is getting ridiculous!! It keeps on snowing and snowing and snowing and snowing. My dogs love it, but they have to stay on leashes with us, so they can't have too much fun out there
My husband heard this morning that there is supposed to be a storm coming in a week or so, that will drop the temps below 0, and more snow, ice and wind I keep checking weather.com, but no mention of that yet.
I'm so glad he talked me into a 4-wheel drive vehicle this year.

After a couple of weeks of really rainy weather (which we needed), we're back to beautiful sunshine today. Its currently 54 f, (12c)... so I can't complain.

We don't get snow here very often. On a clear day, we get a good view of Mt. Hood, and if you are in the right part of town, Mt. St. Helens (yes, the one that blew up 20 years ago!). Its very pretty.
