Title: Looks like a nice day???
Post by: BallAquatics on December 26, 2012, 06:30:06 AM
Blizzard Warning until Thu, 1am EST tomorrow morning.  A wintry mix this morning, becoming all snow, possibly heavy for the afternoon. Windy. High 31F. Winds NE at 25 to 35 mph. 6 to 10 inches of snow expected.

I was thinking about some client visits this afternoon, but will probably just stay in!   ::)

Years ago, my folks had moved to western N.Y. We lived in Warsaw, about 45 miles due east of Buffalo. The snow totals every year would blow your socks off....amazing, we (the kids) loved it. I always watch the winter weather in that area now...takes me back to a great time in my youth.....did I say youth....LOL.....that was over 55yrs ago.....LOL....

I hear ya...  When I was a kid back in the 60's, we had lots more snow around here too.  It would snow before hunting season and we had snow all winter.  Enough snow you could build snow forts and giant snowmen.  It would often snow in quantity where they would need front-end loaders to dig us out as a truck mounted plow just wouldn't cut it.

Now-a-days, it's every 3 or 4 years between snow that completely covers the grass.  You'd think we were in Atlanta - at the first mention of snow, it's run to the store for milk and bread like it was going to be a major ordeal.  LOL

I think The worst storm I can think of around here was in 78. That was a evil storm. Now a days I think the folks in Ohio forget how to drive. They act like they have never seen snow before.
