So, Seattle is expected to have the worst snowstorm since 1940 in the next 24 hours! We have had everything come to a halt in the last few days because of a few inches of snow, but they are expecting a foot or more of snow tonight. The timing couldn't be better for us to leave for TTR a week from today! Seriously, this is awesome! We are tan from the tanning bed, and are SO looking forward to the 80+ degree temps - bring it!! I used to think SoCal was too hot, but now I welcome the heat/humidity - and that is huge for me :aktion025: I can't wait to be on the Boobs Cruise on the 26th, buy a tube top, and party with Chinos! whatever happens after that, so be it - better than the frozen tundra we are leaving behind!!!!!!! At least there will be no tropical storms - we are so over that!
We hear ya! In Ottawa this morning, it took about an hour to scrape the windows of my car clear of ice -- in the process I broke both my scraper and my wifes scraper! There was about a 1/2" of ice coating EVERYTHING due to the freezing rain overnight followed by a flash-freeze. 80*F and sun... this coming Sunday... BRING IT ON!!!
My thermometer was showing 6 degreesF this morning in Kansas City! See ya next Wednesday. Have me a drink ready will ya? LOL
Damn Guys, you folks have it tough. Here in Buffalo we are having the mildest winter I ever remember. Here it is mid-January and I've only used my snow blower once this entire winter and it hasn't been that cold yet. Even Lake Erie hasn't frozen yet. We've got about two months left and then it will be spring. We may try to get down to TTR at the end of tax season for a break from our non-winter.
It's actually been pretty good here too. No measurable snow yet and only 3 or 4 of thee cold days and then bounces right back up to 40's and 50's. Pretty amazing winter. Not sure I remember one like this.........
I have gone through 3 tanks of gas in the snowblower so far this winter and I only have a very small driveway, and it has gone below -40 multiple times. You guys all have it easy! lol
Sorry to hear about the weather Newfies. Over here it was 8C yesterday, and it's going to be 8 again on the weekend to. No snow in the Snow Belt.
It's a snow day here today...no school for my son...no work for me. Glad I brought my work computer home last night. March really can not get here soon enough! D
Our backyard on 1/18/12 - got about a foot of snow last night, our water feature pond is frozen solid, and it is about 28 degrees outside. Seattle is basically shut down today because this type of weather is so rare! Cannot believe one week from today we will be arriving in Cancun - it is just surreal to think about tropical weather right now!
