Here in Southwest Iowa, it is sleeting/freezing rain. We are supposed to have 3/4 inch of ice and then about 10 p.m. tonight it is supposed to turn to snow. It is or was 20 degrees an hour ago. The schools all let out at 1 p.m. today in preparation for the storm (why they let out that early I don't know) and we will probably have no school tomorrow. It is supposed to snow till about 6 a.m. tomorrow morning. But, hey, if we don't like what we're getting tonight, we can just wait until Monday. It is supposed to be -11 degrees. Yuck! 11 below zero is not my idea of fun. :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

    Snow storm! 25 cm overnight. It's about to start, going all through the night (snow plow outside my bedroom at 2:30 am, yay! :grumble: ) until tomorrow afternoon and then the same again on Sunday, plus roughly 5 more cm every day next week.

    We're gonna have a whiiiiiiiiiiite Christmas.

    In and around Chicago-we're supposed to get 6-12 inches and south of the city we are supposed to get an ice storm as well. I'm PRAYING for a snow day (teacher!) because in anticipation of a snow day we did a lot of fun stuff today. My 6th graders won't take it well if we have to be in session tomorrow!

    my bestfriend lives in Canada and she said that it's miserable there. I don't know what it is when I was growing up it just got cold and every couple of years it would snow. (that's Oregon by the way) Then I moved to NY and for 2 winters it snowed and was cold and I loved it. they we moved down here were we have warm hot and to damn hot:laugh: hate that for 3 months out of the year I can only take my girls outside from sun up till 8 or 9 am and then after dark. :grumble: I would love to take your snow! :bigsmile:

    It is quiet right now in CT, but pretty cold (low 30s). We are expecting the storm from the Great Lakes to start sometime tomorrow morning (around 9 am). Supposed to get 8-12 inches of snow. Most likely they will come get the kids for school and then realize that they need to send them home early. Crazy school system. :noway: :noway:

    Although I guess that is better than the one year they predicted 1-2 feet of snow, so most of the state shut down (including work) and not a flake fell.. That was very embarrassing, but a lot of fun for us..... :blushing: :blushing:

    It's 30 degrees tonight in Salt Lake City, Utah. Heat wave! The last couple of nights it's been around 12! We're supposed to get 8 inches of snow by Saturday night. Funny, because at the beginning of the month it was sun shiny and around 50!

    Central Iowa and a teacher too! We also got out at 1:00. It was beautiful then, so I couldn't figure it out either. We hurried and wrapped parent gifts and I passed out my students' gifts in anticipation of a snow day tomorrow. It was supposed to be our last day before Winter Break.

    The ice started here around 8:00. Six inches of snow is predicted on top of the rain. BLAH! :grumble:

    Where are you PON? I'm near Ames.

    Ames? Wow! We're close. I'm in the Quad Cities. Work in Davenport actually but live on the Illinois side, a little south of the QC. We've been getting nothing but ice for 2 hours....I have a friend in Sully. Same thing there. Stay safe tonight and tomorrow. Kati

    Midwesterners- I do believe we are in for a LONG winter! :angry:

    I second Kati's wishes for safety and warmth during this storm. :flowerforyou: I hope we don't have people without power due to ice. What a mess!

    We were supposed to head to the Twin Cities tomorrow night. We'll see! :ohwell:
