I am so happy that it rarely snows in Austin,Texas. I can enjoy the snow from everyone's photos.

Living in Florida as I do, I have to look at all the snow pictures.
I love them and love not having to shovel!

We got our 3rd dusting last night. But it is cold. Feels like -4 according to the weather people but to me it feels like 2 quilts and my fuzzy blanket sleepers with a pr of socks inside them.

Same here in SW MN, Sandra! This morning was nice, for a change...woke up to +1 instead of -17 like yesterday!

Our snow this year is Great. We need it so bad for the snowpack. So far here we get a couple of inches, and it melts off, and then a couple more. But, the high country is getting a lot and for that we are grateful.

We are now hearing we may get accumulation Friday night/Saturday. It's NC so that means just enough to cover the toes of your shoes:) We take what we can and are happy and excited! M

Well I was horrified when my nephew posted on FB the weather report for our area for Friday/Saturday: Possible we could have up to 20" -- egads!! Of course it won't be that much, likely, because winter weather is notoriously difficult to predict for the east side of the Blue Ridge foothills where I am. But even an inch keeps me inside for a day or more, so I am NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO it maybe being more than 12", that's for real sure. :hunf:

I will not risk my auto deductible for any snow on the road, even if I were scheduled for surgery!! Doing a grocery run tomorrow or Tuesday and socking in for the duration, no matter how long it takes to clear and warm up.

I don't DO below 25 degrees. I don't DO snow in any amount. HATE the stuff!! Only like to watch it fall and listen to the intense quiet.

Be safe y'all!! :thumbup:

It snowed in England this weekend on Saturday night had gone by Monday morning. Love the snow when it comes and goes like this. Scotland and Wales had snow for a few weeks.
