Yep, snow. Scroll down to the 36 hour forecast.

Snow is great for the first snow fall or two. But we've already surpased the record for snow this year - 105.5 inches for the season. This will just add to the record breaking season.

Yes fwan, it is called Northeast Ohio and you can get snow until the first week of May. By then, you can put away the snow shovels. Talon, I am with you since I live smack in the middle of the heart of the snow belt, Geauga County!! 3 weeks ago we were pounded by that heavy wet snow and had no electricity for close to 3 days. Now, more wet snow. I have to laugh, yesterday I was using the lawn mower, tomorrow it may be the snow blower

By the way, that 105.5 inches was for Celevalnd, Geauga County has had somewhere between 140-150 inches or it could be more. I haven't seen the complete total yet, but that is going to change anyway. We had over 50 inches for the month of December alone and now more. Oh well, before you know it, everyone will be complaining it is too hot and hiding in their homes with the A/C on.

Hey fellow Geauga county person! I am barley in Geauga - step across my property line on the south and I'd be in Portage. Luckily we didn't get hit with a power outage last time.... crossing my fingers for this time too!

Hey there!!! I am a few miles from the Portage line. Actually, I am not that far south from Chardon. I just looked at that forecast. It looks like 3-5 inches tonight and another 4-6 inches on Sunday!! Wow, another foot of heavy wet snow. I really need to get myself a generator. I don't know about you, but when we lose power, that means I have now water as well.

Yep, when we moved here in May of last year, the first week we lost power for 3 days - it was our first experience with having a well.... needless to say our first week here did not start off well. We keep talking about getting a natural gas genertor - my bonus money this year had to go for something else - so hopefully next year! (And hopefully we don't need it before then)

Fill up those empty milk jugs so you can flush the toliets
I don't think they are forecasting accumulation for us today ( they had previously mentioned 2 inches) , but those 35mph winds will add an extra chill to the freezing temps. I think since it's likely that all my flowers are going to die, I might has well pick them and bring them in where I can enjoy them.

Movin' on up!
Yucky! It's 8:45 a.m. and I've been out on my patio, wearing shorts and a tank top. This time of year, we don't even have snow on the mountains.

Yesterday was short sleeves and now I'm running around in my fleece jacket.

No snow here, but the wind!
