The last winter I spent in NY, it snowed on Memorial Daynojoke.
I can tell it's spring here by the huge number of skunk roadkills.

Yup. Dunno if the Yoopers will get this storm, but we have a watch from tonight to tomorrow night, calling for snow, sleet, freezing rain, rain, and ice developing from 1/4 to 1". Can't wait. :roflblack: By the way, what's the difference between sleet and freezing rain? :dontknow: At least we got out for a nice ride to the Artesian Wells Saturday afternoon.

Sleet is rain mixed with snow, or ice pellets...in other words it is partially or wholly frozen as it falls. Freezing rain freezes on contact. Both are very unpleasant afflictions! nojoke

I am worried that the forecast is changing so rapidly, and is being pushed further and further south. We were not affected when I went to bed last night, but are included in the watch this morning. Can being included in the warning be far behind? I haven't even cleaned up all the fallen limbs from the last ice storm. Bah, humbug!

Yep!!! The forecast calls for -30 Celcius by tomorow morning here in Northern Ontario. That would be -??? in Farenheit. (Sorry, I forgot the formula...) Spring has sprung alright!!! :cus:

Hey there Fastfraser! I think for sure that you people down south of us have had much more snow than us in the past couple of years. "Global Warming"???

Ah well!! My "White Steed" is not here yet anyways. I guess this makes waiting for it not as nerve racking!

This reminds me of a statement made by a news woman talking to her weatherman about the storm the night before. It went something like this:

" Well,Stan, I didn't get that 8 inches last night like you promised..oops" :roflblack:

Well, it started this afternoon with rain, then freezing rain and then the white stuff. The ride home was treacherous. Here is bjt's poor Spyder looking out the garage and then the view off our back porch only minutes ago.
