Yay! White Stuff!
« on: December 28, 2015, 11:52:30 am »
I love winter....love the frost, the snow on the barren trees, the clean cold air.

So far this late fall/early winter has been a disaster here in Wisconsin. Lots of rain, and lots more rain.

Today, Winter Storm Goliath (I think aptly named) has just hit in this last hour.

The wind is howling, blowing fiercely, and there is snow swirling around everywhere. Supposed to get 3-5 inches.

I am quite happy.

Oh man it hit hard here in N.M. the freeway was closed from Amarillo tx. to Albuquerque N.m.  Just opened againabout 10 a.m.. People were gripping as to why it was closed all the way. But all we have are small towns between the two lagre cities and can only absorb so many people. they opened up the convention center  for stranded people along with meals also the Baptist Church served meals too. We were snowed in with 5 ft. drifts and  didn't dug out into late this morning. Then was not really safe. Don't have storms this bad often. But now we have another coming in Tuesday night. Hopefully not as bad.

I think there won't be any snow in the north east this year.

I wish it snowed here in Southern California. It's gotten down to about 34 and it's rained...not quite snowing, but it's getting close. Here's hoping...

I love the smell of the cold clean air but not so much the snow.  It's pretty coming down and to look at but not to drive in if there's ice underneath like we normally get in area.  Hope you enjoy the snow. :rose:
