Winter Weather Thread 2010-2011

[trwi7]

I think they should probably draw thundersnow as something other than lightning so it doesn't confuse people. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[owbc]

Lots of lightning being reported in northern Illinois. Should be headed right toward Milwaukee by midnight.

[hawing]

Our front sidewalk (we live on a corner) is one long drift. I've never seen that before. Also, the snow + wind keep turning on our motion detector light in the back.

[Hammer]

Had several drifts that were over the bumper in my Nissan Pathfinder this evening on my way home (around 10:00) near Oshkosh. What a joke.

Apologies if this got its own thread in Major Leagues (because it kind of warrants one), but it's also weather related:

 

Blizzard takes off part of Wrigley Field's roof

[whizkid]

I have a feeling this one is going to miss us. I predict we see snow, but nowhere near the 10-20 inches that are predicted.

How you guys doing in the south? I'm so thankful we did not get more than a few inches in MNPLS because I'm so sick of the poundings we have been taking up here. Sounds like this one might have surpassed the one we got a few weeks before Christmas.

 

Best of luck!

[homer]

Apparently it stopped snowing a few hours ago here in Chicago.....that is not the case right now. It's not all that windy but the snow is coming down as hard as last night. We have at least a foot I'd say although its hard to tell with all the drifting.

 

EDIT: Just heard on the radio that O'Hare has 19 inches. That's a lot of snow.

Some photos I took of the monster in Milwaukee.

Some tough snow blowing and shoveling today, but I lived. I don't think anyone on our street died or had their houses cave in from all the snow. Thank goodness the media was all over this one!

[milwaukeesportsfan]

Yeah, I made it into work with no problem after shoveling my driveway, which took about 30-45 minutes. I'm the only one here right now, which is kind of nice.

Even Jim Cantore fears the rath of thundersnow!

That video is AWESOME.

I could cry. It may snow in San Antonio tonight. It was almost 80 on Sunday. It's been freezing cold all week. The good news is that by Sunday, it will be back up to the mid-60s, but I will cry if I see snow on the ground in the morning.

[craigharmann]

It snowed less than an inch and we got a bunch of ice. Everything is shut down. Should get above freezing by noon. It is a skating rink. But, tomorrow the high is predicted to be 60, so I'm happy with that.

I cried. And then I laughed because I knew how much the rest of the country was laughing at San Antonio and the state of Texas. We are wusses when it comes to snow, but we definitely know how to handle the heat! And then I remembered that I'll be firing up the grill tomorrow night, so life is good.

[Brian the Automator]

So..... anyone else get snow?

No worries, it is still in the 80s in Florida. Somehow Florida has been immune to the abnormal cold over the last month. We actually had to close the windows and turn on the A/C today.

Probably that global warming stuff.

Yeah, my kid sister who lives in Tampa said it was 72 there today....she was cold. I wasn't too happy with her.

Ehh, I grilled during the blizzard in December. I have grilled at least 3 times since then. We grill brats every year for the Super Bowl.

I hate and envy you

 

It truly sucks for me to live in Wisconsin since i despise both fall and winter. I'd seriously be willing to consider letting someone cut off say my pinkie finger with a pair of garden shears if i could live in a place like San Diego if my daughter, family, and friends were there also.
