Ugh, they keep talking about what a monster of a storm this is supposed to be. I'm totally sweating it because we leave for the Keys on Wednesday, and tomorrow was going to be my running errands, getting everything ready before I leave day. Now I might be digging out instead. Oh, well, the babysitting grandmas might have to get creative with ways to feed the L'il Peas. :biggrin:

For some reason the amount of snow that falls is directly related to the craving for french toast. So all stores run out of bread, milk and eggs. :cool:

The worst part is and we have it coming tonight, 76 yesterday, forecast for tomorrow 37 and snow showers, is that when you drop 76 to 37 that quickly, the tornadoes are going to come with it. :eek:
65 right now. After watching the news coverage of that jet in Germany fighting the wind to land, I don't want any wind. :yikes:

Well...it ain't snowin'. Just misting. Cold. Windy. Yucky. Guess I have no room to complain though considering our sisters to the north are about to get buried. I will shut up now.

Not here. Cold and drizzly. Snowing or sleeting all day long. We already have so much snow. There are mountains of snow!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is not beautiful anymore. Most of it is BLACK now.
Oh, I better get milk & coffee too. :lol:

I've been hearing from friends across the river who are saying it's been sleeting/snowing for a while. It is sleeting now here, but no snow yet.
Found out this weekend that we are headed to SoWal in April - a quick change of plans made all the more sweet by this weather and the fact that I don't have to wait as long as I normally do since it was a last minute change! :biggrin:

It IS exciting when you don't get snow regularly.

:wub: I'll pray real hard that you get to see it. I think they were kidding about the closings! The streets are just wet...not frozen. It looks like it might have stopped for a while. I think some more is supposed to come though. It's pretty. Maggie doesn't quite know what to think.

Another snow day here today, just got the calls. They're still saying somewhere around 8 inches of snow. At this rate, the school's going to have to host a 4th of July picnic to be held during recess.

:bang: I left for work early this morning to try and beat the masses. One would think after having all the snow we've had this year, people would not freak out and just DRIVE :bang: Didn't happen. Took me almost an hour to get here!
On a bright note, I've already decided to leave early today ... right after the spring training game is over (I listen to them on my computer) :blush:

I was all set to protest the other days they've made us work by not coming in today but then it didn't look like it as going to do anything when I got up this morning. Got ready, made my way through the completely iced over road only to get about ten minutes into my drive and it starts icing/snowing. Now I'm stuck here.
Good riddance.

Other than my boss, I am the only one from my "team" here. Why couldn't it have snowed like it is now at 5 this morning?!
Kitty, I am sorry I didn't get any daytime snow pics for you. It was gone when I got up!! Just like JR said. It's a beautiful day here today..and it melted FAST! But, if it makes you feel any better, there WERE lots of late school startings this morning. Mostly north. I thought of you when they were on the bottom of the screen.:wub::wave:

:wub:...Bless your heart! Thanks for thinking of me. I found one little patch of ice back on the deck...otherwise, it is dry! It was a beautiful day for driving.
Maybe our STL friends will send some shots! :wave:
