We got a little here today, but most has already melted away. Still some on the roof though.

I don't mind it that much - we get chinooks here and the last few years the winters have been pretty mild. Only the odd day or so where it got down to -35 deg. C. Don't mind it too much as long as it warmer than -20 Deg C. :) Natural gas pricing was a killer, though :eek:

It didn't stick around here but there were a few inches on the ground to the north. 50 miles north the highway was closed for 7 hours after accidents in zero visibility conditions :eek: .
p.s. all you people who like winter are sick, very sick.

But then again, we've been having a lot of swings recently. Could be worse, humidity is low at the moment.
Main reason I like winter: you can put more clothes on in the winter. The reverse does not always apply.

Well who (in a snowy place) wants to trade places with me? Here in sunny Southern California we have 2 seasons: "hot" and "less hot." It's been more years than I care to remember since I had a white Christmas, and most of my friends don't even know what REAL snow looks or feels like (man-made resort snow doesn't count). Not trying to rub it in, but the grass ain't always greener on the other side...

I'll trade places! I lived in Arizona for a number of years. We could visit the snow when we wanted to, then go home where it was warm.

We only have two seasons here also - "winter" and "bad tobogganing"

True! Yours is brown and ours is white :)
