About time, local ski areas have been suffering. Even in Vermont (although they are way off to the left, they have great skiing)it's been lousy!!!!!

We're overdue for one of these. This winter has been remarkably mild here in Richmond, we've only had one snow and that technically wasn't even winter since it was on December 5.

Then again, since Richmond always rides the rain/ice/snow line on storms like these, we'll probably only get cold 33-degree rain out of it.

[Dog]

So what does that mean?

[AnAmericanMother]

Know Your Gerunds.

(SHE might be shooting at me, but not the other way around.)

She prefers to pick up the recently deceased birds, it's just her thing.

[xcamel]

More snow (finally!) where I live. (upstate NY)

[HipShot]

and I'm taking the dog out shooting.

Cantcha put it up for adoption instead?

Thanks for fixing that. I had visions of a dog with thumbs.

[MikefromOhio]

yeah....

and I am out in Springfield which is the far western edge of the snow anyway as it stands....

[Molly Pitcher]

We want to travel this weekend....southeast:-(

[Toby06]

Phew, I was skared there for a minute.

[beezdotcom]

You forgot this....

[Dog]

Not good..

[Angus MacGregor]

I hope it's a monster storm.

The ski areas up here need the snow bad.

[Toby06]

My toby can fetch beers from the cooler and flips a mean burger, but he can't quite get the loading part for his .22lr yet.

[firewalk]

let it snow!
let it snow!
let it snow!

Expert Senior Meteorologist Joe Bastardi

I don't listen to anything that Bastardi says.

[xcamel]

I haven't had my snowmobile off the trailer yet this year :(
not once.

[Molly Pitcher]

no...Well I have a window where I can cancel the reservations with no penalty

[HipShot]

This adds a whole new, (and easier), dimension to coon hunting.

I hope he's not acrophobic. I'd be happy to load for a dog like that.

[wardaddy]

I love snow....i own car washes....it is manna from heaven

these warmish El Nino style winters are horrible for us

calling for signifigant snow in Nashville...we got a dusting last nite

we have a family home at about 5000 feet in extreme northwestern North Carolina and snow there is way off from the usual Labrador-like winter....I think January was warmest on record

[always vigilant]

I with you on weekend activities.

I'm in Ct and I'm off with my son (9) dog (4) and a friend to chase after some birds.

I hope we don't get a foot of snow.

If we do... oh well.

Cheers!!
