Your weather sucks down there, I'm the type that would enjoy the cold stuff more. Bring it on! But it will only be 33 here the next couple of nights, that's a bummer.

But it will only be 33 here the next couple of nights, that's a bummer. I can just picture it now: "A man was found today running around naked in the snow cursing Florida for their nice-warm-weather. When asked to comment, the man threw a hand full of snow into the air and screamed 'bring on the cold!' We here at ABC Action News have nick named him Mr. Freeze."

I really don't mind the looks of snow, I just hate how freakin cold it is. I would be perfectly happy if it only snowed on Christmas and then melted the next day.

Are the leaves still beautiful up there NV? I'll be up there Saturday to spend the day. I don't care if there is snow--I had heard there would possibly be lake effect snow--as long as it isn't 20 below I'm happy! I'm SO excited to be headed that way this weekend!

Peace Bridge at the Buffalo/Fort Erie crossing is closed and all of buffalo is shut down this morning. It spills over into Fort Erie/Niagara Falls/Port Colborne area too with many who have lost power.something like 30cm fallen and another 20cm to go? I'm still listening to the radio.the funniest is the radar map...as i look out my window i see nothing but blue skies, but 40minutes down the highway they've shut things down completely!http://www.intellicast.com/Rdr...=kbufgotta love lake effect!!
I have signatures turned off so I'm not even sure what mine says in this space!
