>>>>>>>>>CURSES.... No snow this weekend in our neck of the woods! Time to degrease the sleds and hang them back up!

>>>>>>>>>Seriously... it was funny going to CostCo (BigBox store in Greensboro) and see people going out the door with large plastic sleds on Friday.... so funny !!!

>>>>>>>>Well, Tommy, I went to bed last night expecting to get up to a tempurature of 31 below (celcius) known as minus 31 here, but I was delightfully surprised. When I checked the tempurature, is was only minus 29 :) So, it's going to be a good day. I am looking for a seventeen pound Christmas Haggus and some haggus sauce to go with it, so I'll be smiling as I shop for it today. :))

>>>>>>Yep - But it's just a nipper. Not a snapper.

>>>>>The Sacramento county received a light dusting for the first time since the mid-70s. We've had a couple other light snows but nothing that's actually stuck. I haven't seen any snow on the ground downtown but I did see some in the surrounding countryside on my way to work. At my home it snowed for about 40 minutes this morning but nothing stuck.

>>>>Ahhhhhhhh, You must hate that weather.

>>>Knowing that it would only last a couple days, I'd really enjoy it. My father has shown me pictures of a snowman he built in his backyard in his teens when the snow actually stuck once. So far that's a once in his lifetime photo. I'd like one of those for myself.

>>I saw somewhere online today that Sacto had a temperature reading of 20 degrees. Not sure if that was during the night (probably) but it's still pretty cold for there.
>>
>>And it's all headed our way. The front edge of it is here already.

>Yes there is a nasty one headed your way. I have a down filled parka and I no longer shovel my driveway. How about you?

I did shovel my driveway this morning, a very heavy mix of snow and water. With the temperature expected to drop 20-30 degrees today, it would have all been ice by tonight.
