Yup, Lynn, I'm jealous. But not for long, we'll get ours before I know it.
Maybe now would be a good time to start finding mittens and snow pants for the Dominator.

Well, OK, how about some localized snow that skips the southern half of the state and points east?

we lounged by the pool in Duck Key today. There was a breeze - I had to use my towel as a blankie. Burr! |

It's okay to snow now. Got the kids' snowpants, hats, and gloves today. HOW do they lose them EVERY YEAR? It's the one thing that never gets handed down.  |

Did you check the very back of the closet?

(And yes, you will probably have to deal with these until December.)

Ours is all gone too, just the mud is left.  And none in the forecast, thank goodness because we are traveling over T-Day and I don't want to battle weather like I did last year (remember when I got stuck in Des Moines???)

It went from pretty snow back to these mild fall days. I'm going to start getting confused soon and think that my house spontaneously relocated somewhere south of here.

It was almost 70 last Wednesday. It is supposed to be unnaturally cold and rainy the next two days. We may have snow showers on T-Day and my SIL is already saying "OMG, we'll have to eat early because we'll need to get going before the driving gets bad!" She only lives 30 or so minutes away

What's the next letter after Gamma?
You should have seen the people here... OMG... some DWO person on the road on the way home... snow is BARELY sticking, and she was driving 15 in a 40.
The native Floridians have arrived to torment me! |

Why would Floridians go north for the winter? 
It's supposed to be in the 60's here today. We are going north, and I think it's 40's there. WAH.

It's -5 right now, and snow is predicted for today. Accorinding to Environment Canada's 5-day forecast, Thursday has been removed from the lineup this week, as after today they list Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I was hoping you were talking Celsius! I couldn't figure out how we managed to be so much warmer than you when we're further north. Of course, we don't get nearly as much lake effect as you do.
We have a pretty dusting of snow right now, but not really enough to call it real snow.

Ugh. Ours is real enough- and the freeways around Detroit are an absolute mess. I thought I needed some fat-free turkey sausage for Margo's recipe for tomorrow along with a Land's End order just waiting for me in Ferndale.
After I listened to the traffic radio station, they made it sound like if I didn't need a new kidney, I hadn't ought to be out there driving in it. So, we're making pies here, and gnocchi, and are going to play a game. I guess there are worse things than snow days- especially the first of the year.
