It will be a high of 75 degrees today. I'm taking the boys to the dog park

(i really do miss snow, though)

Here just Northeast of Dallas we have a bit of snow still on the ground this morning! I notice Tibbe is staying clear of it when he can, walking on the grassy parts only. It is still cold and feels very Christmasy! Still can't believe we had snow on Christmas. It was so pretty looking out through the tree lights and seeing it snowing a good part of the day. We didn't really get enough to completely cover the yard but it still did snow most of the day at one rate or the other. But our ground was so warm that it had to snow a lot to get the little covering we did get. Thought I'd never see that here!

I'm just North of Buffalo, NY..literally less than 5 mins from the border...but we got clobbered here. There is over a foot of snow and up to my knees in other areas. Thank God I have a plow guy, now if only he could get here earlier...wth? Anyways, I'm still home sick so no bother....supposedly theres another storm coming...I sure hope this winter is not trying to make up for the last few winters when we've had next to nothing...ugggghhhhhhhhh STOP THE SNOW, PLEASE!!!!

About 8 inches here I think! Ride into work was HORRIBLE!

Bumped a snow covered curb, thank god that was it. My car just kept sliding sideways as I was turning off the ramp onto the main road. Luckily it was only 9am and there was hardly anyone on the roads at that point.

Sending warm thoughts to you all who got hit with so much cold and snow.

yorkietalkjilly · 12-27-2012, 03:23 PM

Well, I'm loving this colder weather and right now it is cloudy outside, cold. But I know, being the Metroplex, it will be nice and warmish again soon. I love variety in weather - brisk in fall, cool/cold in winter and warmer in the spring, hot in summer, with rain fairly often but not too much like in some rainy areas. I just have to have the differences of weather somehow. We lived in Houston for 3 years one time and we did have some cold spells but it was mostly too warm for my liking year around.

I had about an 1 1/2 inches at my place. All the ground was covered. I was laughing so hard at my Luci she stepped off the covered patio and only about half of her body could be seen when she went to potty.
I still have just a few spot's of it left, so it should be all gone by tomorrow.

BabyGirl Rosie · 12-27-2012, 04:01 PM

Tomorrow's forecast is freezing rain and more snow! Uuuugggghhhh!

dawn27 · 12-28-2012, 09:15 AM

Wow.... Our measly 6 inch is nothing compared to what some of you have gotten.
Lets just hope you are all safe and warm ...

The pups whined until I let them go out in the yard with me and run in the snow. They Love it !

No more snow in our forecast for now,

Shelby&Seymour · 12-29-2012, 03:56 AM

We got SNOW! During the night last night it must have snowed quite a bit.... Looks like 4-5 inches on the ground. My alarm clock was blinking when I woke up so the power must have been off for a bit, too. But of course, I donned my boots this morning and HAD to go outside in my bathrobe just to take a good look. It is so beautiful! It covered the trees perfectly and it just shimmers! Looks like it will be stopping here in a couple of hours, so I am here by the window taking it all in. (it is really nice to have snow when you don't have to go anywhere....

Lol, now that's enthusiasm! I got a big smile reading your description. Enjoy! And don't forget to take pics!

BEgrace7 · 12-29-2012, 05:32 AM

I'm in Syracuse, NY... Needless to say we'll be staying indoors until April

BabyGirl Rosie · 12-29-2012, 05:34 AM

Well we had 30 min of snow and then it moved on! Yay! But they say another front is headed our way. Expected arrival is Monday. So we will see what this one brings.

yorkiemini · 12-29-2012, 06:58 AM

We got about 3" and Cali won't stay in the house

. She gets soooooo cold and I have to meet her at the back door with a towel and warm her up with the hair dryer!

Don't know how to get pictures from my iPhone - but she is loving it
