Snow used to be, when I was a kid. When did it turn deadly? :?

An inch and a half of snow rolled in today. It fell from 1:30 to 5:15. There must be a 4 mile back up in front of my house. Nobody can move. school buses are almost 2 hours late. Funny thing is i don't think the snow is a problem. It's people running red lights. Pure gridlock out there.

We got maybe a 1/4-1/2" mixed in with freezing rain and the temp dropped below freezing so it's sort of like a skating rink on the secondary roads.......while they run around looking to buy mild, bread and toilet paper.
What if lollipops moaned every time we licked them?

Finally sat down after a week of running crazy and baking cookies. Kid is sleeping and i crack open that beer left for Santa. look out side and it's snowing. You don't get many Christmas eve's that it snows on. I got to wake her up to see this. That little ball of energy never tires. Never a quiet moment.

To paraphrase Linus, "and that's what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown." Enjoy every minute with her, mate...they grow up fast.

First day of Winter was December 21, 2017 but so what, it is still 78 °F in the Sonoran Desert.

--CAUTION--
Never buy more than one thermometer.

A man with more than one thermometer never knows what the temperature is.

Less-than-reliable sources (Weather Channel, CNN) indicate some snow and/or sleet heading your way, Roger...better get out to the garage and wax your snow-shovel.

I think you are right. None in any local forecasts or from NOAA.

10 degrees in north-central MD at 0700 today. Just 14 degrees now. Heat-pump (a misnomer if there ever was one) has been cranking non-stop. Tossed a ten-pound ham in the oven to generate some heat. Will start burning furniture next.

Just read that it's colder in New Hampshire than in Antarctica..
