Yep; it started last night with a bit of snow (just a dusting). I am so not ready for this.

Yes,we may get 1 to 2 inches of global-warming tomorrow.

I have to buy a global-warming-blower sometime soon. Last season, we got hit with lots of global-warming, the heavy kind and in 3 to 4 foot drifts. I have a single stage global-warming blower but it just doesn't do the job. I'm probably going to buy a 26-30 inch wide double stage global-warming blower... the only question is which brand. I've heard Ariens is a good brand, but our Home Depot, which carries the brand, got flooded in September and hasn't opened yet. I may have to consider a Craftsman global-warming blower.

BTW... my technical lead lives in Denver, Colorado, they got hit with 4 inches of heavy wet global-warming the other day. He lost his power and wasn't able to make some meetings.

Yea, looking at the snow outside itis happening. It is all over now, but thousands lost power.

I was lucky - no problems at all

Ended up with about 7 to 8 in of snow

My g/f's kids in Connecticut lost power last night, too. They got 6-12 inches of snow. It's too soon to tell, but I have a feeling this winter's going to be a whopper.

I have to agree with you Karl. I suspect this will be a lousy cold and snowy winter.

So far thousands are stlil without power and it is freezing outside. The weight of the snow and leaves on the trees are cauing them to take down power lines

It is a huge mess

It took a few days but the liberal media is doing what I thought they would do

The snow storm that hit the East coast last weekend was because of - shock - global warming!!!

Well those global warming folks should all come to my house and sit in the living room; at least the body heat would keep the place warm. Almost a week without power now. Hopefully it gets fixed today.

Great! I heard there are still thousands without power and my heart goes to them given the freezing temps at night
