SNOW! Already!
Well, I scrapped snow off my windshield this morning, drove through a snow squall on the way to work and am sitting here looking out the window at another snow squall making things look dark and dismal... I am NOT ready for this ****... This is reportedly the earliest we have had actual snow, on the ground in, since last year... Of which we are a day earlier...

Damn... It was cold here this morning too. In the 50's and stuff. Supposed to be mid-70's this afternoon though. Sunny, too. Poor you guys. I love California weather.

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

No snow, but we had some CRAZY rain last night. It was down-pouring for approximately 6 hours straight; some pretty bad flooding. My house is a corner house and on both streets adjacent to the property there was some pretty sever flooding. Had I been driving anything but the Tahoe, I would've been SOL; water was about 10-12" deep in some places. The craziest thing was it stopped raining and the flooding receeded in about thirty minutes.

It snowed a little here too last night. Was 25 degrees when I went to work at 6:30. First day I didn't wear shorts to work since last spring. Crap!!

Global Warming is a figment of some left wing tree huggers' alarmist imagination...
I wrote the initial post in this thread while I was sitting in Troy. After driving 60 miles north on I75, through two MORE squalls and backed up traffic with iced up wiper blades I am now sitting in my office upstairs looking at the snow on the ground... and thinking about the work I'll get done this winter.

This is what my place looked like last night at about 6pm.
We had snow squalls all day long and the drive home from Troy was interesting. This is the earliest recorded snowfall in Genesee County. FINALLY! The grass will stop growing.
I was out lighting the pilot on the shop furnace while this stuff was falling.

How'd you like to be at the Tigers v A's game tonight in Detriot.
Gametime will likely be around 40deg with snow/sleet/rain and 30kt winds.
Yikes!True T.

Good thing I just moved to the Detroit area!
I haven't seen accumulated snow in 10 years (been in Phoenix, AZ most of my life). So far, Michigan 0, AZ/CA 72 and approaching the end zone again. This bites.

Sorry, but the infamous SNOWBOWL at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro Mass has to take the cake for all of the outrageous game conditions. A virtual Nor easter with several inches of snow?? Man talk about being able to play ball like a little kid!!!

Yeah, but that is football. A sport meant to be played in any weather in a mire of mud, blood and beer.
Baseball in the snow just seems wrong. Kinda like hockey in florida.True T.
