Whoa... Send some of that our way, willya? :mrgreen:

I would gladly do it, if I could. That's just a bit too hot for comfort IMHO. Especially when it doesn't get cool at night :(

Was sunny all day today, so some snow melted. But we're expecting a couple of feet of snow on Wednesday.

Snowmageddon! Oh wait, that happens later on tonight. :beaten:

^^ Nope, already started here with about 4 inches and another 18 by tomorrow night, plus it's only 8 F. :bleh:

We got 10 inches of snow today and another 10 tomorrow. With all the shoveling, I didn't even feel the cold, I was sweating so much. :sweat:

Clear and sunny, but a frosty 55F. :sweat:

When I went to retrieve my garbage cans from the curb all the water on the cans was frozen.

Yeah. The external temperature reading on my car's dash was 43F this morning. Fingers feel like frozen breakfast links

Yeah, it's been a harsh winter, but looking back this past summer was also harsh.
Today's snow was hard to shovel because it was mixed with rain, which made it very heavy. :sweat:

Luckily the storm sort of missed us, only about 4 more inches, said the storm was too powerful and fast which is fine with me. :mrgreen:

Getting a mad workout to boot! :sweat:

42F at the moment... I could use a bowl of hot soup right now. :sweat:

Hehe. Could use a hot bowl to place on my head for warmth.

Snow accumulates in a pickup truck that was stranded and left open on Lake Shore Drive, Wednesday, Feb. 2, 2011 in Chicago. A winter blizzard of historic proportions wobbled an otherwise snow-tough Chicago, stranding hundreds of drivers for up to 12 hours overnight on the city's showcase lakeshore thoroughfare and giving many city schoolchildren their first ever snow day.

^ Last week, they showed a car that was completely encapsulated in ice: a nearby water pipe broke and sprayed the car with water overnight, building layer upon layer of ice on the car...

Insane. They should dump the car in a big pool of scotch so it can be used as an ice cube.
