If you'd have asked yesterday, we could have sent some your way. Just made it through a blizzard here.

Don't want to talk about snow! We have gotten our fair share here in Colorado! It is pretty though. :)

We are looking at possible snow HERE in south texas...NEXT WEEK!!!!!Today it's almost 70...
If it does the whole town will shut down...these people already have NO CLUE how to drive...I'd hate to see them in the SNOW!!!!!!
Supposed to be able to blame the snow on Canada....

When it gets cold here in Oregon, they talk about snow...but it never really happens, so when it does it's a big deal. 1/2 and inch to an inch on the ground and ODOT put out a release asking people to stay home.

It was pretty while it lasted...the sun is out killing the snow now. :cool:

KC, I thought Texans were tough? Is a little snow gonna wipe you out?

Ask bb1 about snow... well, maybe not... they got hammered harder than us. So I guess it ain't just a Canadian thing. hehe

It is beautiful though...and I love to ski...even though I suck...spend more time on my a**...but it's fun...

I was in Dallas once, a couple flurries in the air, and everyone was whipping out the chains for their tires. :)

I'm in Dallas and they're not calling for snow...they're saying Ice starting Saturday night/Sunday Morning and just barely above freezing Monday and Tuesday. Could get ugly around here! I'd take 6 feet of snow over a inch of ice anyday.

KC, I was born in San Jose and grew up in the San Fernando Valley. Have been here all but one year of my life when we lived in Virginia. I was 5 years old that year and it snowed for Christmas--there were sleds under the tree. We had this sloping hill behid the house that was perfect for sledding. I love it when it snows here, but we don't exactly need chains...the big thrill is when there is still a thin blanket of snow still covering everything by the time I leave for work. But yeah, I don't think I could handle living where it snows in a serious way.

I grew up very close to San Jose...lived in Va...Virginia Beach...for 3 years...it's snowed everywhere I have been...even South Carolina...except Spain...but it did freeze there...froze the HUGE water fountain in the middle of downtown in the round-a-bout...absolutely breath taking...

Californians...don't do well with snow...can't imagine texans do either...

KC...Check the forecast again...they already changed they're mind. I'm convinced that it's all for ratings...they've been hyping it for a week now and then when we're only 2 days away they change everything and now they're just saying rain and cold, but not cold enough for ice and snow.

Cristal, we had the same forecast last night pretty much exactly. On my way to the gym Friday morning it was snowing very lightly--snowed a little heavier in nearby areas.

Well we got some freezing rain in Dallas Sunday night into Monday morning...nothing all that major...but I stayed at home just because. I could have gone to work, but I didn't. So instead I found a warm spot on the couch and keep the fireplace burning all day and we watched movies. Those are my favorite kind of days...very relaxing.
