Started snowing here at the Jersey shore about 9:00 pm. So far, we've gotten about 3 inches, and according to the forecast maps on the Weather Channel, we're due for 12+ inches total.

Dallas might get a whooping 1 inch of snow and that will shut down the entire city. I find it very funny as I'm from up north. Ya'll who are getting feet of snow, stay warm and don't go out if you dont' need to.

Both of these storms completely missed us. :( Skiing and snowmobiling are at a virtual standstill. Even the ski resorts that make their own snow are in bad shape. The crust on the snow is so hard that I can go for a walk in the woods in my slippers. Am headed to Florida on the 21st and at the moment it is only 9 degrees (F) warmer there than here.

Was just a few months ago that a senator or congressman in DC was lamenting that they would probably never see snow in Washington DC again due to global warming.
