Where is the Snow?
Original Message Jan 18, 2005 2:02 pm

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.

Oh yeah mrmom,
Where you bean? We were worried sick. Your picture almost ended up on the side of a two stroke oil bottle.

Two stroke bottle of oil? That's sacrilegious! Nothing but four stroke for me.

Just my luck... if I do get a stroke down the road (in about 25 years I hope) it'll be four limbs that are affected instead of two.. Either way, take me out back and shoot me...please!

Robmints, it's good to be missed. As long as I don't owe you any money. ;-)

Just got 24" of snow....................the next county up from us. We only got a few inches of powder.
Those lake effect snows can be very selective around here.......one town gets dumped on, the next almost nothing.

Actually, we're not getting that much so far this year.

Oh sure, everything is still white and snow covered, but not much in the way of new snow. It's been hovering between -10°f at night to 15°f or so during the day. I did use the blower this last weekend... to blast out a trail to get the trailer out. Loaded up the quads and went for a trail ride.

I really wanted to by a sled but at this rate...

oh well, it's still early!

Wow Frank. That's soo close to home for you.

We had a few dusting here and will be another this morning. Then the weekend I hear will need a close eye watched upon it. Let's hope for a foot.

We had an Alberta clipper roll thru and left about 2" of semi-wet stuff this am, another clipper is coming thru tonite and we expect about the same, and then a more serious storm is due in Sat/ Sun. We'll keep our fingers crossed. Taking my youngest tobogganing outside of Cleveland this weekend, should be fun!

I have about the same forcast as Emmo. I got an inch here, and Saturday night into Sunday should be a measurable storm.
