In Reply to: Who has snow today? sm - april
It's headed our way tonight in Upstate NY. We're suppose to get over a foot. Tomorrow it is suppose to be snowing all day long. It'll be one of those days when I REALLY appreciate working from home.

Snow?! What snow? LOL I live in south...sm
Mississippi. We rarely have snow so I can't relate, but I think the snow is beautiful though. I tell ya, a couple of years ago my husband and I went to upstate New York during March or April, not sure now which. I froze to death. I seen enough snow to get my fill. It was a bitter cold too. I am not used to that. A cold front had come through so I don't know if it normally snows there that late in the year or not.
NY Storm
You're lucky. We have had a couple of feet here, and up in Oswego, I'm sure you've heard 10 feet of snow. Yuck! Be safe tomorrow. Hopefully you won't have to leave the house for anything.
until I was taken out by a storm
I thought only briefly about hurricanes, tornados, etc in other parts of the country. After being without power in below freezing temperatures for over a week after an ice storm that destroyed my trees and messed up my house, I have a new empathy for storm victims. The total lack of control made me realize how much we take for granted. Glad you are okay! 
Ice Storm
So I am new to being in a state with cold weather and horrible snow storms. When I say new, I have been here about 10 years but we have only had 1 major ice storm that knocked out power for days. We stayed with my in-laws and it was no big deal. They have generators. Well, now the in-laws already have a family of 5 staying with them so the house is a bit crowded. We are a family of 3.5 ourselves so I would like to avoid that if at all possible. We have a gas stove and would still be able to cook. Also have a gas water heater but our water runs on a well with a pump so that is limited along with toilet use. We have gas central heat but I'm assuming with no electricity the air won't get pushed through the house?
My question is - do any of you have great ideas for how to stay warm with no electricity other than the obvious of snuggling in bed.
Upstate NY Storm
Where in Upstate NY do you live? I live just outside of Syracuse and we've been buried in snow lately. But I did drive to NYC this weekend, and once I hit Cortland there was no snow anywhere. Everyone be safe.
When we had a major ice storm last
February, schools were let out early (10 a.m.) and the info was posted on a crawl at the bottom of the TV and on the radio. No parents were called.
I do believe it is the same storm system s/m
Not sure when it turns to ice though. If I remember from the radar last night, looked like southwest to northwest Ohio is going to get hit with this too. Not sure about Sunday's storm yet. I tried to pull up the radar, but it isn't showing for tomorrow yet.
My daughter is supposed to be driving up from Dayton tomorrow and going back on Sunday, but I warned her not to. She just might have to stay!
Gas Station during a storm....
Had just left one date at Starbucks, stopped to get gas, cashier and I instantly fell in lust.
Two years and going strong...
When you least expect 'it,' I guess 'it' decides to drop in your lap, lol!!!
We are having a severe thunder storm right now
and I am working like crazy becuse my dog won't get off my feet so she is working the peddle for me. I just love my furry critters!
Always shut down during a thunder storm - sm
I had a "great surge protector," i.e., an expensive one, that was supposed to protect against a lightening strike. Guess what? Lightening struck my modem anyway! I was down several days while I waited for a new modem to be installed. Not too happy with my protector and will never trust again.
hail storm in MI sat, saw a man with a beer riding a
now that's something you don't see every day!

This town has been through so much. The same storm that hit the town of Enterprise sm
the high school where 15+ kids died when a tornado hit their school, destroyed this hospital in Americus, GA. The town was devastated. Please see this local news link to help them win an MRI machine. Thanks everyone!!

snow!!!
Hey, I'm in upstate NY too! I am so excited. I have been working from home for almost two years and I swear ever since then there has been no snow!!! When I had to drive 30 minutes to work we got dumped on all the time!!
snow
I live right outside Albany and we have only had an inch or so here and there. Looking forward to staying home!
Snow
We have snow here in PA too. Started this morning and hasn't stopped.
They say it will snow until 6:00 p.m. Wednesday.
Schools closed early and some have called off for tomorrow already.
Snow
Mt. Mitchell State Park, just a little NE of Asheville, North Carolina, off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Had snow to my hip first week of May. May start falling early. Call to check.
Snow - still - nm

Snow
I live near Scranton, PA. We have about 4 inches and school is canceled.
Snow, Oh, NO!
Nothing here yet in Upstate NY, but they are calling for 1-3 inches overnight. I'm not looking forward to this at all. My friends all laugh at me, once the snow falls, you'll never catch me outside unless it's absolutely necessary. On the upside, they're saying that for Halloween it's going to be 62. Very strange weather here.
Snow!
Hey yall! There is snow on the ground in South Texas (between Galveston & Houston). I looked outside when starting my shift at 0200 & it is there....will probably all be gone by 10 though.....we almost never get snow here.
Snow...
You can definitely have the snow from WI.....If things continue on the way they have started we will never see green grass! I think it April before all the snow melted from last year!
snow
Wow that is a mess of snow. I am originally from NY/NJ and I really miss the true meaning of a snow advisory.
Snow is melting....sm
Temp up to 55 today. Hope you got in touch with your family! Roads were good the day after. It really wasn't as much of a storm as the media made it sound, as per usual. Good luck!
As far as snow, it's been clear. But
as far as traffic goes in general, good luck. I live only about 45 minutes away and on a Saturday it can take hours to get in, especially bad at the tunnels, and parking is also the pits, can be very expensive, one time it cost me $40 for a few hours. Is there a train or bus you can take? Good luck and have fun!
Who has snow today? sm
Big snowstorm here in Ohio! It's been snowing nonstop since early this morning and isn't going to stop anytime soon. My husband's job even cancelled today! We probably have 4 or 5 inches already.
snow in nebraska; sun is out now tho

Some snow in Philly
It's been snowing lightly for hours, but ground is barely covered. Expecting about 5 inches tonight, though. Haven't had any real snow this winter.
well I don't have snow, but apparently from the looks of it-
not much grass. This time of the year it is easy to tell that I have a bumper crop of wild onions and they are a lot higher than the grass that is greening up. I have daffodils, hyacinths and crocus. How long until you see green?
Wow! Big snow last night
Have about 16 inches of snow this morning. Sledding anyone? 
I hate snow too
I want to hibernate until the winter is over with. Even my dog hates it. We lived down south for a few years and now back up here. I am ready to go south again. I am actually getting nauseated over it. My plans are to go back.
snow music...sm
Enjoy!  Cat

At least someone here is enjoying snow
Jake thinks it's a real hoot! I would too if I didn't have to scoop it all, reminds me to make my New Year's resolution AGAIN to get back into shape!!!
No snow here, but here is Bear.
Bear thinks he's found a bunny. It's just a stuffie though.
snow dogs
I once had a little black peke who would walk around with her flat little face in the snow. Your goldie is gorgeous!!
Snow angels!...nm
*
and the snow plow just went by. I have at least
3 inches on the ground. I guess I am going to have to shovel the driveway. Hope I can find the shovels. Arghhhh
I LOVE THE SNOW!!!
I am in GA also -- outside Atlanta -- and I love it. I'm from VA and I have really missed the snow!!. And it's so beautiful: Big, fluffy flakes!! We have about 3 or 4 inches and it is still snowing pretty hard!! 
Don't snow this again option either...or SHOW ;) nm..
.
MINIMAL SNOW IN COLORADO!
We have less than an inch - what a switch, huh? I am in Colorado Springs. We had our fill last month, though. Hope everyone is safe and sound at home, typing away.
No snow today in San Francisco! :D

Got 5" here...lots of snow this winter...nm

I'm in South too, last time we had snow was..
last time we had snow was Jan 1977....nm
Definitely snow in Denver tomorrow. sm
If you want to go "out west" try the coast of California. No snow there, but snow in Colorado.
my neighbors waiting for snow outside
with a flashligh in North Carolina!!
Where do you live that it is snow weather?
It's been close to 90 almost all week here in central PA. My DH loves snow and is ready to move north.
It's snowing here - I love snow
Just thought I would share. Anyone else getting snow today? I'm so glad I can sit here at my desk and watch it snow instead of being outside working in it.
I had thunder snow here today as well
in northeast Ohio. Got just enough to cover the grass so the pup could run around in it for the first time :-)
We got snow!!!!!! Yipeee!!! Its falling in big, big
My little kitty is outside chasing the snowflakes and hopping in it like a rabbit. How I am supposed to work with this fun stuff going on outside?
Thank you God for nature's beauty and the critters we love.
Yuck - I can't stand snow
Or winter. I really don't know why I still live in the Northeast. We have a lot of snow (we had a snow day already yesterday). When it's winter I don't leave the house unless it is absolutely, positively necessary.
