This is why I would never move down south. Snow! 12" and rising!

LOL, that's exactly why I moved down south! I like snow storms during the storm, and for about an hour after, then it's just a headache.

SNOW?? Is that the WHITE stuff we see all over the ground on TV? It looks pretty, but I hear it's really COLD.

We have about two feet of it now. It was in the 20s and very windy. Electricity went out for a few hours. Back to normal now.

Today I'm very glad we moved away from western Massachusetts. The area where I live now actually averages more snow than they do there, but this year has been different. Much of our snow comes off Lake Michigan, and the capricious winds that determine "lake effect" snow have worked in our favor this year - but we do have warnings of freezing rain tonight thru commute time tomorrow morning.

I used to live in Bremen so I am well aware of the lake effect snows. I was driving back and forth from Bremen to Elkhart General Hospital in '76 and '77 - there were blizzards in mid-late January each year when I was doing that. I got a job at Columbus Regional Hospital and moved south about 180 miles - away from the lake effect snows and honestly, I miss it. This year is has snowed 3 times this year and only one time did it "stick" to the ground and that was less than 2 inches.

I have an ATV with a snow blade and a tractor with a grader blade - these are my snow machines and I've been disappointed this year that I haven't been able to use them.

My brother still lives in South Bend and he doesn't have the same opinion of snow that I do! LOL
