Yeah, still waiting on the 1 day of snow we usually get. It will be the biggest story on the news, Kinda fun watching everyone slide around on the overpasses and freeways.

We've had quite a snow-filled winter so far here (BC, Canada. Near Vancouver)

Usually we've been getting like, at most three days with any snow through the year, but we've already had a couple stretches with some good snow, and theres more in the forecast again.

Looking good Donny, but who's that with his arm around your girl friend?

We had a little excitement around here last night, a few snowflakes, the first ones in two or three years. But it's all rain this morning, not that that's all bad down here in the drought-stricken south.

Damn, Marcello must feel like a popsicle at 38 degrees LOL. Hey don't complain, the high here for Sunday wont break out of the teens and the wind chill will be in the negatives. I snapped a couple pics from about 2 hours ago.

Pretty dang cold. It might get down to 32 tonight. I won't be outside for sure.

Got to love it how even though it is cold out, we are still sitting at 50% humidity.

it snowed two days ago, I took the seven out and rallyed the **** out of it the day after when everything iced over

the car has amazing sideways balance in the snow. I could command under or over steer at any time and no abs didn't even feel scary.

I love it when it snows here. Last time I think was in 93 or so...Everyone was pulled off the road and I just strolled on....LOL I spent 3 winters in MI and I grew up on a Georgia clay road. Driving in snow is almost just like driving on that clay road after a good rain. I've heard rumours that it may snow here on Sat...yeah, right...
