Been there, done that with a couple inches of dry flufies. Just play the wind if any and wore my ski goggles.

Our storm gave us 10.5" by midnight last night, and an undetermined amount more after midnight. It still hasn't stopped this morning. We already had 30" of snow on the ground before this started yesterday, so we won't be moving around today until we get some serious snow moving done.

Yeow! It was mid seventies here yesterday!

84 here so we are only dreaming of a white Christmas. In fact been so long without rain we are dreaming of a green Christmas instead of the brown one we got.

Actually yes!

And the day after Christmas the fog rolled in this afternoon. At 3:30 it was 24*. Now at 4:50 it is 15*. The sun is gone and the visibility is about 200 yards.

15 minutes later at 5:05 the temperature is 13* and visibility is less than 100 yards. This is not unusual in the Salt Lake valley in the winter when there is a good blanket of snow on the ground.

We had the second most snow on record for Christmas day. The old record was 1916.

At the risk of getting political here,

If Al Gore had have invented the Internet,
instead of INVENTING the money-making
arm of Global Whining (warming) how
much snow you would have gotten?
