The city Yankees are whining again. Meanwhile everyone else has been doing chores and carrying on as normal as possible.

NBc was trying to Dramatize the "monster storm"

Well, it varies by location, but on the Pacific coast it IS a weird winter. Wed morning I had 13" of snow on the level, this time of year normally that should last for a couple of weeks...nope, thermometer popped up to 48 degrees and the wind blew for 24 hours... snow gone. Never saw that before. Last summer, I think we went around a hundred days without a drop of rain.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Never saw that before. Last summer, I think we went around a hundred days without a drop of rain. I sure wish we would get 13" of snow. 4" total maybe over two days last week, then it was almost all gone by day three. 45F yesterday, 54F on the recorder for today, 47F presently. 20+ mph winds with higher ones expected.............from the south. If we don't get some real moisture soon, our extreme drought will move to exceptional by June I bet.

Pretty normal temps around here. Got about 15" of snow on the ground. A bit worried, as we did not have a white Christmas. About 92% or average snow pack at the moment. Hope it keeps coming.

Any weather that leaves your house inhabitable ain't very bad.

(Red Alert) for 1 - 3" (INCHES) Panic and run in circles. If we get cold, that's just a heavy frost.
