We probably have 6" as of now, it's still coming down but it's really fine flakes. They said it was suppose to get down around 12 degrees!!!

Here's a shot out the living room window (sorry for the screen but I wasn't going outside):

Just drove back from an operating session in Erie, Pa. Interstate 90 snow covered with strong gusting winds and heavy snow. Visibility at times down to 20 feet. 4" of fresh snow in driveway, temp 12ºF.

Yup. We got lucky it didn't drift a few miles westerly....

15 degrees here and my garage door is binding so the opener won't work. Every day it's a new adventure, :roll:

Rex its not just GW its the cumulative effect of all of us. I simply fail at understanding the notion that all of humanity can have no effect on its environment. I suggest asking the American bison or the passenger pidgeon, dodo etc. Rather Hubristic dontcha think, and that is indicative of GW handlers. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The polar bears are beginning to have a precarious and tenuous time of it, too, it appears .

Oh, they can swim a bit, but not well enough and far enough to save themselves when they find themselves adrift on an increasingly-smaller, melting ice island that continues to get smaller and smaller and smaller as it makes its way around the Atlantic , huh.

Jumped in the VW this morning...deader than a door-nail. What the heck? Hadn't been run for a couple of days, and it did get down into single digits, but still. Threw the trickle-charger on it and it started right up after three hours on the charger. I'm guessing this is symptomatic of a weakened battery.

I better go check the battery in my 2008 Mini, it's the original one. Never had one last this long.
