    Our weather was late too. We had a green Christmas, about an inch of snow a couple of days ago and today (Dec. 29)......we have about one foot of the white stuff, which fell over night. The plows are out in full force and the sky is now blue. I hate to even admit it, but it looks pretty with the sun shining on it.   :)

    LOL
    [So THAT'S what those white hairs are from...lol ]
    My hand was gripped in a claw after from hanging on to the wheel so tightly! Once we got barfed out the other side of the pass I was whooping and thanking the powers that be lemme tell ya !! Wooo hooo!

    We started with freezing rain this morning then turning to rain with high winds this afternoon. We didn't take the pounding you folks had down there.

    UK weather ain't so good either! :))

    Some kind of wow! The Mississippi has flooded and not even crested yet. Highways are covered, 13 feet above flood stage. Y'all look just as bad! Take care and practice holding your breath...... (El Nino)

    We had a white Christmas in Fresno, til the frost melted!  I chipped the ice off the picnic table and put the gifts Santa brought (he doesn't have time to wrap them) there, wrapped in some plastic to keep them dry. Big surprise for the children! 
    No more rain for us til 2016, according to weather reports. Weather will soar into the 50's

    Frost? Is that normal or unusual for you? I think of California as "always sunny and warm". I know that some think of Canada as "always cold and snowy" and that's not true either, so pardon my ignorance.
    P.S. That Santa sure is busy at this time of year, isn't he? :)

    Huh. The gifts from Santa were never wrapped at my house ......
