Enjoy it while you can! Out here we've gotten maybe 4 inches all season. We got about 2 inches over the past two days, but tomorrow is supposed to be near 50 with possible thunderstorms. This has been one crappy winter!

And meanwhile, we've got over 12 inches on the ground and more on the way. At least the below 0F temps are out of here for a bit.

We got our second measureable snowfall of this winter in Chicagoland yesterday. I'd say we probably got about 6 inches. The first one we had a week or two ago was about 3 inches. We too have been unseasonably warm and lacking significant snowfalls. I don't mind the snow, but I definitely haven't minded the warm weather either. We're supposed to get rain and possible thunderstorms tomorrow/tomorrow night and after a short cold snap this past week, we're supposed to be back up around 40 by midweek. Gotta love the "winter" weather here in Chicagoland !

Two to four inches of snow here. I love it! Especially since I had to shovel the driveway myself.

Enough to panic the "usual drivers" who don't know how to drive in the first place Tomorrow (Sunday) and Monday it may all melt which will make for some sloppy driving Anything but the extreme cold I'm good with

Tomorrows high is nearly 70 with the possibly of strong winds, large hail, and tornados. I MAY favor the snow more than this..
