Has anyone been getting any significant snow besides Hickster in Alaska? Where is it?

If this keeps up much longer, deals on snowblowers are to be had.

I'm seeing snow as forcasted for Sunday too.  Very cold here.  Maybe 1 and a half inches here tonight. Then I'll wait for Sunday.  Something should come of this. 

I think we got as much snow as most in the eastern states so far.  We had our pre-Christmas storm that left us with 12inches (16-20 inches just NW of us).  Then it got warm..................local weather guy said last night, that we NW of Columbus had over 10.5 inches of rain in the first 15 days of 2005.  (Remember my flood pics at WTB?) Man if that had all been snow, I think we would have definately won the eastern snow title!.  We did get about 3 more inches Sunday , so it is white and very cold around here again. Currently 12 deg. F/  was -3 F last night.

Thanks Emmo. 

And yes, I remember the PIC's. Lottawatta!

Hey dave, believe it or not, most of us in CT are above average for the year so far.

Ive recorded 20.5 inches for the 04-05 Season already. half of normal.

And HOPEFULL, we get SPANKED this weekend.

MountainMan, you and Dave_in_Ct must be on opposite ends of the state?

Marshall..


I've had 2-3 ~6" snows here too... one was a few days ago... it metled in 6 hours  a day later !


Dave...

Well from a dusting too 2" predicted here in the Boston area tomorrow, or tomorrow night. Then they said it depends on a storm coming up from the south along the coast line, and depending how close it comes to the coast we could be in for a pretty bad "Nor' Easter starting Saturday night, Sunday and into Monday morning...

Ever see the Maytag commercial with the old repairman sitting at his desk tapping his fingers waiting for a call/job? That's how I feel. The little Honda's been prepped and ready since November and yet nada! Oil's changed, everything's lubed, fresh stabilized gas, new coat of wax, parked by the garge door..... and yet.... where's the snow?

Last winter we had our first snowstorm (5 inches or so) here in central Jersey by the first weekend of December. Then just about 4 inches or more almost every weekend after. This winter's been a dusting to an inch here and there. Nothing to sink little red's teeth into. Come on!

And know what? I'm not looking for a piece of wood to knock on nor am I keeping my fingers crossed. Bring it on... d*mn it!!!! Enough already! Stop with the teasing!

Of course now that I just tuned into the weather channel, they are saying that there may a significant storm this weekend the way things are brewing at this point. Sweet!!!!

I'm with you mrmom. Send it your way. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
