Holy !!!! Snow?!?

[chickwhorips]

yep typical weather for here. its only going to get "better" through the winter. though i do like our winter storms, but the winds do hurt after a while on the face.

last winter it took me 20 mins to get across to the quad to go home after work. between the ice on the only pavement in town and the winds that were gusting to about 80 i practically had to crawl.

gotta love it though! so happy to see snow again! and glad i'm not the only one.

the storms hit here and then travel down to the rest of you in the upper half of the lower 48 or canada. so go ahead and blame us, we just blame japan.

I am so looking forward to the snow flying! But, like Pyxichick, I don't voice those sentiments too loud. People already think I nuts for biking in thirty-odd degree weather as it is. I can just hear it once there is snow on the ground!

[pyxichick]

I just brought in a pile of firewood in the hopes that I'll be able to sit by the fireplace with snow falling outside soon.

Kitsune, where in WI are you from? I'm from north central WI and I go back as often as I can (usually for skiing because MN has had some crappy winters lately.)

Come on Amber, you know you love us cheeseheads

We got some snow this afternoon (not it's just drizzling). Darn Japan,hahahahahaha. I was supposed to go golfing on Friday, guess I'll have to go biking instead. My little guy keeps asking when it's going to snow so I hope he got to see it. It sure is purdy.

my inner cheesehead won't let go.

i love the cold crispness that's outside now. though i keep forgetting to put on my hat and gloves when i go out so i freeze and then remember once i get home that i forgot them at work.

You wouldn't think as a Canadian I'd have to hope for snow (like our image of the Great White North doesn't say it all?! )...but every year my partner and I look to the skies and pray to the snow-gods to give us at least a dusting...even a centimeter or two. Even a heavy frost would be nice! Here on southern Vancouver Island and the surrounding Gulf Islands the climate is classified as Mediterranean and sub-Mediterranean. A good snowfall here is a few hours of snow on the ground, and if we've been good girls and boys all year, some snow may hang around for a day or two. Snow at Christmas? hahahaha...been about 10 years since THAT happened

Did I mention I love snow...?

Tater -- snow flying -- we're looking forward to it too! I'm not so sure about this crazy idea of riding your bike on the snowy days though!

PyxiChick -- leaving MN to go skiing and going to Wisconsin.... We left MN a long time ago and THEN took up skiing here in Idaho: Season Passes arrived today! Here comes winter!

Umm..... I don't think you were supposed to *say* that outloud.....

oh but i was! though it was directed more at someone like *coughkitcough*

[CyclChyk]

Not mentioning (kit) any names huh, Chick?

[chickwhorips]

exactly! i would never say any names K. sune06 i mean kit s.

i think she's ignoring us now.

Buffalo NY getting pounded. Happy Friday the 13th!

Seriously they get so much lake effect that they have my utmost respect. Snow in Massachusetts is wimpy compared to that area.

[Trekhawk]

I love snow. Im hoping our last winter here in NorCal will be a snowy one. Are you listening weather gods - pleeeeease pretty pleeeeease.

[Bikingmomof3]

All this talk about snow has me so envious. I come from snowy states. Moving here, I *assumed* there would be snowy winters. Nope. We will see a little accumulation, but mainly when it "snows" the sky basically just spits a little at my area of the state. I need snow!
