At least we are used to the cold, if not the ones we are having this winter, but temps like that for you will be horrid. I'm sure Tibbe is done in a minute and running back in as fast as his little feet will move.

You bundle up and stay warm, the last thing you need to do is catch a cold or get frost bite.

Second thought not many bugs could live this weather but one can get frost bite within minutes.

Tibbe was ready to come right back in and jumped up on the heated throw on the couch. His feet were cold and damp as it's misting! I'll remember next time to grab a jacket before we go out again.

This cold spell will hold off the early spring bugs for a while I hope.

53 degrees is a heat wave after what we've put up this Winter!

Not sure what Temp we hit today, but of it felt so good...

[crystalsmom]

It's the northern part of Ohio that is getting hit the most and that is my area and Cleveland, Toledo and Detroit, Michigan.... just knew I celebrated too soon. They are saying 3-6 inches at least. I would say we have 3 inches already looking out on the bird feeder.

Yuck. It's still raining here for now but the snow is headed our way although I don't think we're supposed to get as much as you. This weather is crazy! It was 70 degrees yesterday!

I know what you mean but we were not quite that warm. It stopped and I thought it was over but now it is starting up with terrible winds again. I was thinking of you. I have a friend in Middleburg Hts that has a slow blower and the only one on the block that has one so he does everyone's on his side of the street since he and his wife know most everyone. I told him to get it out ahead. He had heard and was not a happy man.

I hope your snow has stopped by now. I think we may have lucked out. It was a little slippery on the drive home from work tonight but so far we have no real accumulation. It is, however, freezing cold! A neighbor with a snowblower is definitely good to have. (especially this winter)

[wemple2]

We didn't get as much accumulation as was forecast. But it is a very heavy, wet, slushy mess. Oh how I long for spring...hard to believe it's mid March and the ground is still snow covered...when will it ever end? Hope you all fared well though this...stay warm, stay safe...

[crystalsmom]

Do I sound like all I do is complain, well if that's how it seems than you are right.

Heavy snow with 50 mile an hour winds yesterday and the pay off is 7 degrees F when I woke up this morning. Like I said before it goes from snow to single digets back and forth and it has to end sometime. Winds have calmed down to 5 miles an hour. At least that is something to be thankful for today.

Yes our snow has stopped but we're freezing our buns off.

UGH... now we have your snow! And it's FREEZING! It started raining yesterday, I don't know when the snow started, sometime between when I went to sleep last night and when I woke up this morning and it just keeps going. Although it does not look like it's accumulating too much, they said 1-3 inches. The roads are a mess. People are SO sick of this weather, this is when driving becomes dangerous because people are driving in it more than they were a few months ago. More people came in today despite the weather, than last storm, so I know they are feeling defiant of the snow. UGH Its so cold also!

Good lord, we had Sleet and rain yesterday early morning than after about three hours of that we woke up to 6 inches of snow and temp in the teens. School was closed again. Plows never even make it around our area until 3pm.

Now: Today we have bright sun and temps in the 50's !! I didn't even clear the drive way because I am thinking 50 something temps should melt it all anyways.

Mother Nature is one very confused women...... OR She going through Menopause !!!

I hate to mention it but we're going into the 70's today and tomorrow and up to 84 Saturday. And that's really nice right now but by May, it will be into the 90's and soon after that, SUMMER in Dallas, which only the strong and those with excellent AC survive. I'd love to have a longer winter for us down here - but only the kind of winters we have - not all that bitter cold, wind, ice and snow week after week for months. IDK how you all survive so much cold weather and living with the snow all over everything for so long. Must be just as hard as anything driving and shopping and going out to eat or to the movies in deep snow - as hard as the heat is on summer activities here in summer. Wish we could trade out a bit - our extreme heat for some of your cold air. Wouldn't that be great?
