Storms in the States.

I hear Alabama got "wind" from me as well.

Apparently snow is due here tomorrow.... Even a slight sprinkiling will cause chaos.

a slight sprinkle of snow here closes all schools.

Takes several inches here to close anything. The last snow storm was up to my knees and nothing closed.

Well the snow turned out to be a rather pleasent dry day, not even a hint of it.

If we were to get knee deep snow here, it would be considered the end of the world.

i could see that happening Rumble. My niece lives at a higher elevation than i do and she got 14 inches of snow. I don't know what that measures to in England, but it's a lot of damn snow.

I bet it don't snow much in Colorado does it Thrust?

Well that depends where in Colorado. Where I live in Pueblo not much. I live in a bit of a valley/desert climate compared to the rest of Colorado and its mostly dry save for a couple of good snow storms in Jan. area. I live close to the mountains though and can be in deep snow in about 30 minutes.

This is about 30 minutes from me. This was 14 inches in 2 days in December.



This one is a little over 2 hours away taken last may.



I visited the inlaws in easten Colorado a few years back and snow was 4 foot deep. Smacked my shin on the mg in the backyard, it was completely covered.

i feel that if i want snow, i will go to it. I don't want the snow to come to me.

No snow here yet, but the tempreture has dropped dramatically. My hands were red raw by about mid-day today.

red raw? Did you scuff off all the paint from your winky?

"Snow" has finally arrived here.





You would not beleive just how much chaos this is going to cause Monday morning...

drive carefully.

You will not believe this, but Oregon has been hitting 60 degrees F!!!!

Clear skies, sunshine. This is definatly strange for this time of year.

I am off work for a week, so hopefully I don't have to go anywhere!

It is not as cold here as it was, the snow has definately made it warmer.

It is an unusually warm winter here too, mostly in the forties (f). It snowed here last week about as much as you got there Rumble but its mostly melted now. Its supposed to snow again tommorrow, I'll take a pic.

This came down in about 2 hours last weekend.





And a little lighter tonight.

we had snow for a day here too! Seen 18 cars in the ditch on my way to work the other morning LOL.

Is that your Red Bumblebee?

How about those tornadoes ripping around lately!!!!

Haven't seen any snow here since Feb. of last year. Been unseasonably warm here too. Temps the past couple days have been in the mid-70's. Not complaining now, just hope it doesn't carry over into summer.

This is my red, brown and blue Mexican Bumblebee collection.


This ones actually orange but it looks red in the picture.


Snows gone already!

so you also collect repaints that are NOT action figures LOL!!

blowing the dust off this thread

East Coast got hit pretty hard the other day

Yeah, my heart goes out to them. Hopefully things are returning back to normal for most people affected. I heard somewhere once every 100 years or so a major hurricane hits the New England area. Guess they were due.

I know it's bad when it gets alot of news coverage over here, some of the pics I have seen.... :pale:

A lot are still without power. Now a 'Nor-Eastern' front is on the way which will drop temperatures below freezing and probably come with a half a foot of snow. Doesn't look good for the thousands of homeless already there....

Makes me realise how lucky I am over here, sure we get alot of rain but nothing as severe as that.
