    It's not going on my bio in the media guide.

    She tiptoes into the thread, quietly, and suppressing a grin, looks around, reads every post.

    She turns, tiptoes quietly from the thread, closing the door as silently as she can.

    Then she, The Queen of the North Woods, bursts into uncontrollable laughter.

    So does he. Though you have much more experience with this kind of stuff, but stuff like this is not all that uncommon out here. Still ... amusing at the panic buttons being hit. Meanwhile, into the mid-50s tomorrow. Snowshoes await. We'll get our 24 inches in March.

    And, I've said it before, I'll say it again ... I'd rather deal with 2 feet of snow than 2 inches of rain.

    I'll see your two feet and raise you more than three feet.

    Two years ago, in April, a week after a two-foot snow fall. :)

    And I so agree with you on the rain. I'd rather drive in snow than rain any day.

    This has to be the heaviest snow I've seen in quite some time. As I peer out my window I see a power line that is heavily bowed. Two large trees are also leaning heavily over the middle of the street.

    Power please stay on. That's all I ask.

    It is now 3:30 a.m. and not a single snowflake has fallen.

    Yet every high school event scheduled for our area -- and there was a ton of shit supposed to go on Saturday -- already was postponed by 6 o'clock Friday. Half of it was rescheduled for Sunday, meaning I have to work instead of kicking back and knocking down a few with friends while we watched the Colts beat the Saints.
    I'd be less pissed off if we at least had 6 inches of snow to use as any excuse for high school administrators being such wimpy assholes.

    And again, Rosie, no disrespect, I'll say:

    You chose to live in Minnesota.

    I did not.

    Yes, we do not have the same snow acumen as those in the snow belt.

    But we don't live in the snow belt.

    Anyway...

    Two feet so far easily here. Another five hours of good snow coming, easily too, which could put us around two-and-a-half feet by the time it's all said and done. I've already done one round of shoveling,so from this point my driveway and walk should be easy. But it'll be Monday, easily, before I even see a plow. This is definitely worse than December's storm.

    This is a 100-year snowstorm for DC.

    Most since 1920 or something like that.

    I'll just say Mother Nature got all of this one.
