Jim, saw on TV the horrible freeway conditions from blowing snow/ice.

Your place OK today?

Not to bad here as we are tucked in the southeast corner of the state-
most of the 5-6" of snow melted down to about 2" and the forecasted
high today of 16F was actually 30F.

Good thing they don't get paid for accuracy.

Dawm...we received another 30cm of snow yesterday, total of more than 50-60cm in one week. Its enought. In Montreal and Laval, located 20-30km from my house, they received only 10-20cm during this week. They are near the St-Laurent river, a little bit warmer 1-2c plus than here. They got rain mixed with snow. I think i will move there :roll: .

No worries, snow is a very nice insulator...
