Snow

We got between 10 - 12 inches of snow (roughly 30 cm) in S.E. Wisconsin the other night. I guess in the south (Orlando, Florida) they will be getting measurable snowfall today. I am so done with winter... come on spring!!!

What boots do you wear with all that snow in Wisconsin, would they be Sorel ones. I like the look of them.

That is some serious Snow Tracy. ! ! We would be hibernating by now with all that in the UK.

I wear whatever boots fit me!!! I wear a 13½ + Wide U.S. Shoe size. Not the easiest size to find in stock. Not sure which brand I have now. I think Timberlands... they are a few years old.

Hi :)
Does Timberland know you have his boots?

Last time I was on the M25 I was stuck for 4 hours and there was no snow.I think 'road to hell' sums it up quite nicely.

well we were down to -9.5 at least last night - way too cold for me.

The novelty of the snow etc has now worn off a long time ago

Swap your snow for my black ice. Who said it was difficult to do a 360.

Hello :)
Snow is back with a vengeance in some of of the USA.
I hope no-one has too many probs.

It's hitting the east coast of the US some places got 40" of snow... Here in WI, a clipper is supposed to be coming down from Canada and we may get hammered Monday night and Tuesday... not looking forward to it.

Tried to snow here a little at about midday...few flakes. Didn't come to much, though. :)

Hello :)
Waiting for the w/e.................................

State side, we are getting our share tonight... They estimate 14 inches (35.5 cm) here in S.E. WI... the night is still young, but I don't think we will get what they had on the east coast.

Wow - we ended up not getting much more snow (about 40cm), but we did feel an earthquake here in the midwest!! Centered just west of Chicgao in Dekalb IL (about an hour and twenty minute drive south of me)... It was a little one... 3.8-magnitude.

We never really get quakes here, well not big ones. Maybe smaller ones a bit further North than me.

I'll take some of that snow off your hands though!

Snow is something I have been very acustomed to living in the Toronto area all my life. But this has to be the easiest winter ever in the Toronto area.

We have had maybe 2 snowfalls this year and only had maybe 2 inches the other day. I wish every winter were like this.

our winters are usually very much like the winters you get Sith.

That said... ours has been pretty mild too... not like the last two years with 100+ inches per season (ugh... knock on wood... might have spoke too soon)

when is it going to get any warmer??

The novelty has worn off a long time ago now

-6.5 yesterday morning, a covering of snow last night but it was still -4.5 this morning.

I think it might be time to emigrate to the Antartic

I love snow! Pretty fun to make snow angels in!

Great weather down here most of the year.

Think global warming is a load of BS, just like the Y2K bug was.

Then again I could be wrong. :) :)

I'm betting you don't get a lot of snow in NC... Winter is at an end in WI, but I'll let you know when you can come up and visit and make all the snow angels you want (if you're flight does not get delayed or canceled to Milwaukee - Mitchell or Chicago - O'hare)... Me, I want to get away from Winters for good!!!

Blasphomey...you love the cold, long & snowy winters in Wisconsin. Ok, that's bullshit. Take me with you.

No, Not in the region I live in. This end of the state is too warm... though in winter we get to the 30's or lower but the moisture just doesn't make it ove this far on account of the mountains to the west and the ocean to the east. If I lived closer to the mountains and the northwestern end of the state I would see a normal winter.. well a winter i am accustomed to. I am originally from Buffalo, NY....snow city! Yes I can understand the need to be away fromt eh snow.. fun to play in but not fun to shovel or drive in... but i miss it. I miss my white Christmases, I miss the desire to cuddle up in my bed because it's snowing hard outside, miss making snowmen and snow angels... sigh. Guess I will always be a northerner at heart.
