SNOW!

[Shari]

Are you getting snow too?

We are getting wet sloppy snow. Nothing is sticking at this point.

Add to that veryyy high winds.......again.

Hey Shari! Snowing hard over hear on the "dry" side for about 2 hours now. We are WHITE again. Looks to be about 1.5" already and no end in sight. I feel sorry for you guys though. It's soooooo much worse for y'all when it snows over there! People just do NOT understand how to drive in it.

Yep! The white stuff is sticking here too.....although, I think Kathy is getting more than us.

We're getting it in waves with wind gusts......and almost time to feed

I just heard from John (hubby) and they have 2-3" already on the west side of town (closer to the mountains). We're just out to the east, so we get a little less than the west side usually. Oh joy!! Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow

Yeeech... I do not want snow! With all this water on the ground it will just turn into a skating rink on this side of the state.

It is just starting to stick in spots, with a combo of snow and hail. Will be interesting to see what it does from now until morning. :new_shocked:

MA I feel for you,, I just got back in from bringing in and feeding the horses. Brrrr.....

Have to go get my Taxes done in town tonight....boy can I pick the days.

Saw some ice crystals in the rain this afternoon. Windy... tree branches down all over the road. LOTS of rain. Haven't seen white stuff though.

I keep asking myself if it is worth it to live here in the Willamette Valley.

: Bleccch. Dark, cold, depressing.

Sure, it's very nice for 1/3 of the year.

Snowbird folks are in Yuma, AZ where it is nice warm and sunny. Wish I was rich and could do that too.

I was gone this afternoon and early evening, so I didn't realize it had snowed until I gathered buckets from the corral and saw funny, frosty stuff -- what the heck? Then my fingers started to freeze and I knew...

I went out with the dogs around 9:30 and it was coming down again, but not a pretty, fluffy snow...it was already rain slogged and yukky.

I love to watch the snow drift lazily down from pewter skies, gathering on leaves and eyelashes, rapidly covering the tips of the grass and turning the world white. And then I want it gone. I hate dirty snow, melting snow...

Daryl, if you go to Arizona, whose fireplace will warm our cold hands? Or can we come to Arizona for movie night?

We did have some sleet mixed with the rain earlier, today, but it warmed up ten degrees in a few hours and blew really hard, knocked our power out about dusk til 9 pm (the whole of Astoria), but we're back up, thankfully.

I don't mind snow, but it just needs to stop and start thinking about Spring already. I noticed there were several daffodils in the yard today, they are already about 6" up and there is a foal coming any day, so Spring...hurry up!
