Yup , snow ...we awoke this morning to snow covered roof tops & our lawn was a white vision of fluffy stuff just waiting for the 1st snowman to be built . We only had about an inch that will melt as soon as the sun  touches it , but it was a wonderful sight to see. Our 1st snow of the season is always a huge surprise & welcome sight for us . I took  our mail out to the box & put the flag up & the wind was so cold against my face that it took my breath away . I turned on the news to see what the temperature was & it was 19 degrees , no wonder my face felt frozen !The DOT was out late last night  spraying the interstate so it did not get ice on it  & treating the side streets with salt . So our winter watch program has begun & will stay in force until late April .Winter has officially arrived with our 1st snow fall .....  4951

All of my friends back in PA had snow pictures posted on FB this morning. This is my first Winter outside of the North, so I'm not missing it (yet).But then I heard it's going to be like 35 degrees here by afternoon school pickup and I whimpererd a little. Why have cold if you're not going to have snow with it?!Enjoy the first snowfall! 4951

Yes I talked to my sister in Cincy and all I can say is ( on my knees)
THANK YOU DEAR GOD for Texas!!! I can't tell you just how thrilled I am to NOT be in Ohio. And yes I will be grumbling about cold temps here tomorrow!! I think all of us warm blooded Texans ought to finish the job the first Texans started and take over Mexico so we can have somewhere safe to winter 😜

I wouldn't even begin to know how to function in REAL snow. The thought of driving in it is terrifying, the thought of shoveling it is exhausting. I'm thankful to live in Texas BUT I really hope it snows a few inches like it did 4 or 5 years ago. Just a few inches & just one day, that's all I want, lol. 4951

I've been here for 7 1/2 years and miss the snow.  My daugther wishes every year that it would snow.  She always tells me it's cold enough.  She was excited when we went back to visit a few years ago and she woke up to snow.  I couldn't get her to come in the house no matter how wet or cold she was.  I remember we were the same way as kids.  I also made a ton of money shoveling for people when I was in my teens. 4951

@Heathur: 8 inches is a nuisance bordering on PITA where I'm from. School is usually called off but most people still have to go to work. Unless you have a vehicle with high ground clearance ( SUV) then you have to shovel the driveway before you leave or you will get stuck. It's not that hard to drive in IF you have experience which most people don't . Reminds me of how most people drive here in the rain. Usually the first snow that's over 3-4 inches causes widespread panic and stupidity. By the end of a really snow year 8 inches is lame. Everyone rushes to the store for milk and bread- doesn't matter if you don't need it- you've got to buy. Kind of like buying water and alcohol during hurricanes. I have NO idea why they don't rush to buy alcohol up there- it was always my first thought especially if it was many days stuck in the house with kids. Yea baby I needed my wine. One time we had a series of ice and snow storms that had the kids at home for 2 weeks- and dh was stuck in Tennesee -wine was the only thing that kept me from killing the kids. We lost power, the house was cold, pipes froze, garage door broke- not fun.
But I digress -if I never see " The White Death" again it'll be too soon. Give me another IKE any day of the week!

A good friend of mine moved to Traverse City, Michigan.  He used to call me during the summer to brag about their weather.  I returned the favor in the winter when they were snowed in and wouldn't see the ground for months!    Emoticon 4951

We are going to North Texas & New Mexico soon and I hope we see some snow! I miss it! I want my kids to see it and have a snowball fight and build a real snowman. Not a 2 inch snowman like the one we built a few years it ago when it "snowed" here!  4951
