Oh, yes...the rain has stopped and we've jumped into the gap to quickly walk the dogs beneath the lightning because of course the rain is the most dangerous part of storms...hmm. We also lost power...for about 10 seconds. Drama!

LOL Marc! that's my daughter's ringtone when she calls me (the Bohemian Rhapsody part). I have answered the phone when it's her before, singing where the ringtone left off.

That's terrible! My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

Cold today - 31 F to start the day! More rain on the way too!

Latinandgreek · 02-23-2011, 11:15 AM

Warm enough today, maybe 10 degrees or so, but not very sunny.

GeoffC · 02-23-2011, 11:17 AM

beautiful day yesterday, temperature +5C.

desertblues · 02-23-2011, 01:53 PM

I cannot believe this: IT IS SNOWING AGAIN.

Get out the glühwein.

FlorenceArt · 02-23-2011, 01:55 PM

Raining. And wet and chilly and gray. Well, black now, but gray all day. Yuck. But days are getting longer and birds are singing, spring is coming!

kennyc · 02-23-2011, 02:48 PM

44F and sunny at the moment....may get up to 50 will be around freezing for a high on Friday! eeek! With possible snow.

SneakySnake · 02-23-2011, 04:37 PM

raining and cool

phenomshel · 02-23-2011, 05:01 PM

Most of the snowpocalypse has melted, though there are still patches on yards and the big piles have not completely left yet. However, as it melts, I'm finding that our backyard has become the repository for all the balls the neighbor's grandchildren lost... LOL. Right now I see a bright pink basketball and a regular sized football. No telling what else will surface.

we have been being teased with a massive snowstorm for the last two days. I seem to be in a no snow hole. it is apparently snowing in every cardinal direction from me except for right here. they are starting "snow coverage" at 0400 tomorrow so apparently they are still anticipating a "major event"

You must have an invisible dome overhead! All the snow is sliding off in all directions - but not on you!
