Snow, let it snow. Expecting 4" of the mess tomorrow Sunday. With a pending huge snowstorm the following Friday.

Hope you enjoy the pre-Christmas snow. I only remember having one in my lifetime, and it was during one of the MANY times my employer sent me north in winter. Nothing like dodging deer on ice and snow covered roads. Sure don't miss that. Have fun, LOL...

I grew up in western Michigan, lake effect snow country, and some of the biggest snows like during the winters of '78 and '79 were amazing. Walked from our roof down to the back yard and back because it was all at the same level above my bedroom. You know, I did enjoy the snow back then but as I grew up it lost it's magic especially when I started driving in it. So now I moved to Florida and took on a 200 year hurricane event in my 2nd year here, so count me lucky I guess. But then again, up north its 100% chance of winter EVERY year. Good luck with that guys, I think I'll take the boat out on Christmas instead. Hang in there, spring is only about 5 months away!

Chris I'm concerned for your predilections.
Glen, down here we'd close schools and businesses with 3" of snow, but I didn't think 3" is much for Connecticut. Love the pic.

No snow here yet. I got tired of shoveling, so I got a snow blower a few years ago. I only used it once. Not complaining though. I did my driveway, down the sidewalk, up the neighbor's driveway, down the other way on the sidewalk, down my other neighbor's driveway. I would have kept going, but the guy two houses down was doing the same.

nickbhw it sounds like in your neighborhood its like that old saying about boats...the only thing better than owning a boat is being friends with someone who owns a boat. Except change out "boat" with "snowblower"! Oh, and since you got one now, it won't snow hardly at all, kind of like how it only rains when I wash the car.
