That midwest storm has the third lowest barometric reading in the midwest's history (over Minnesota). It is equivalent to a Cat-3 hurricane.

It's a good thing I raked up all my leaves up this past weekend!

We had tornado watches yesterday but all we got was some wind and rain. The storm did cool the temp down today.

3 days of constant snow now and they reckon we have another week of it. Inches deep and roads blocked.....

Already the worst November weather for years they say

Whatever happened to global warming?

Wow.... the Brits are Brrrrrrrrrrits today.

It's 38 here. Got down in the 20s last night.

We are indeed but we will get through it.

The old bulldog spirit and all that

Same here Yogi, snowed overnight and more on the way..

Geez Yogi and DeN,

In the states we don't think of the UK getting lots of snow. My sympathies to you. Last year South Jersey had a freakish winter. We had three major storms of shin-high snow. Major pain in the arse.

I hope you lads dig out without too much pain. Beside the amount of snow, is late November a bit early for snow where you live?

Well, I'm certainly not gonna complain about the weather. It's been around 62 and sunny all week. They say a "chance" of rain this weekend but I'm not buying it just yet. The weathermen here thrive on bad weather. When we do get rain you'd think it was "the storm of the century."

Suppose to get down in the 30's though tonight. I think I am entitled to say "burrrrrrrrr".


TIS

It's '31 right now. I seen a snow flake here and there today/

MC, Novemeber is a bit sharp for snow,usually January by the time we get snow,but we do get snowfall every year.

I had the dog on the field this morning and i was shin deep.....

Hows the snowman coming along DN?

We had our first dusting of snow here in the High Desert. Yesterday's temp range: 58/28. Tomorrow: 41/14. We get those extremes because it's so dry here. Yesterday's humidity at noon: 9%.

9% humidity. I'd shrivel up. No mold or mildew down there I guess.

Horrendous here. Worst i have seen in many a year. Roads closed,schools shut,utter chaos.....and its going to get worse so they say

Time to get that stiff upper lip in action

Yogi, the tv news shows here have started reporting on the weather where you are. They're showing pictures and videos of the streets/roads being snow covered, and are saying that this is the worst winter in 25 years (and it's only November!!).

We have had around 10cm of snow in the last 24 hours...All the buses have stopped running and the schools are closed..

That's about 4 inches of snow....

We have had over 2 feet of snow in the past few days and it isa still coming down in bucketloads. The schools are still closed,whole villages are cut off,public transport servicces are decimated and they reckon it may not even think about easing off before Friday........

Getting a bit sick now to be honest,my gutters are all cracked and broken from the sheer weight of snow hanging off my roof

Atsa lotta snow!! It isa still coming down??

Yogi, they reported this morning that Gatwick Airport is closed and Bill Clinton is stranded in Zurich because of the snow.

We have our first real snow but so far it's not sticking.

So cold i can't type properly....

I'm off to shovel my drive and path clear of snow....again

So cold that you sound Italian.

Joking aside, that IS a lot of snow!!

Sorry i meant 10 inches or so..

Precisely my problem, but in reverse:

I promise 10 inches but can barely deliver four...

(Alright, there - I said it! And I can't believe I actually posted it before SC did! )

Signor V.

Yeah, that's what your girlfriend said, too.

(Vitelli made me say it).

We got a good dusting that stuck to the grass but not to the roads. But it is freezing here. It was in the fifties yesterday today high 20's

....Clinton in Zurich! Hide your women and children

Still no respite. We had a load of snow late last night and then a freeze. -10 C no less.........

Blue sky today but bitterly cold, so cold i have icicles on my goolies
