Please, everyone, make the appropriate sacrifice and obeisance to Auril, Talos, Rovagug... . Here in Spokane we've already got over two feet of snow on the ground and it's still coming down. By the gods, make it stop!

That's why I live in Texas. We may have heat that can fry an egg on the sidewalk but at least we don't have to shovel snow.
Sorry, no can do. I've actually already made the proper sacrifices and prayers to ensure that the snow falls there, rather than in Ohio...
So far it's worked out well. :)
Up here in Dallas, Texas we had snow, or ice on the ground just the other day. It almost lasted a full 24 hours too!
We got a little ice on the roads in the central area of the state, but it didn't last. It's amazing how much more winter precip. you guys get than what we do considering the small distance apart.
Yeah, our roof was covered thick with sleet/snow and boy was I excited. Snow me, oh Lord of Snows! BTW, welcome, Sighvat.
Central Texas is really a whole nuther weather zone. And the panhandle is too--in the other direction.

How many inches of snow did you guys get?
None of it stuck to the ground over here. I never heard any official measurement, but it looked like at least half an inch on our roof. Of course, my family's homes in N. Dallas got nothing at all.
@ Sighvat - You're not meant to, so don't even try! On the other hand, I can tell you that OK weather is even crazier.
I'm still hoping that we'd have that rubberband effect, whereby some say global warming would reach a point that it would somehow trigger another ice age. Awesome. Living in Texas, I am set...I figure the glacier will stop by the Red River, and perhaps create the Oklahoma mountains as our new boundary.
Well, I just finished shoveling the walk and front steps for the postman. By law, I'm supposed to shovel the sidewalk in front of my house as well, but...no. I live on a main road, and they've plowed three feet of packed snow and ice on top of where I shoveled this morning. Best to just let it crust over and make a higher sidewalk.
I got the car and driveway cleared too, for all the good it will do. The storm has apparently stopped moving and is just sitting over us. Unless the weather changes, we're expecting at least another six inches overnight, on top of whatever it dumps during the daylight hours. So far, it's the most snowfall on this day in over a quarter century. Good thing school's out until next year.
Just don't add it to my scotch. Hot water only.
I visited my brother-in-law to be: he came towards my scotch with a pitcher of ice water...it was a tense moment.
The only purpose for blended scotches is to provide dice bags.

Yes, but the hard part is to find someone to drink the scotch for you...otherwise, it's a lot of money to pay for a dice bag.

If your having trouble finding someone to drink your scotch just send it to me.
Albuquerque has had about 2" of snow but it was all gone by the next day. The East mountains got around 4" and most of it is still up there. My frends and I were camping up in the Bandeliers, NW of Santa Fe last weekend when the snow hit. We were ready for cold weather but not snow. I Thought I was gonna get frost bite on my feet hiking back to my car.

it's 73 and sunny here in Sanford FLI leave Detroit on Tuesday for Ellenton FL, where I'll be spending two glorious snow-free weeks over Christmas.
Ever since my college days in Michigan's UP (326" of snow my senior year), I've come to REALLY hate the white stuff ...
DUDE!!!!!!!!!!
That's like 27 FEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have about 2 inches on the ground at the moment and it should melt off this weekend. Lord love's central Missouri. Some snow to be all pretty but not enough to make it miserable. Then it goes away.
eh, it never that miserable...jus' depends on whom you worship....hehehehe I live up up in New England, land of eldritch mystery...we love snow up here.....
Behold.
Huh. The bags are sold separately. Whoda thunkit?
Dang. Now I feel bad ... I love CR
To each their own. Now if Jack Daniels came in bags, I'd have plenty of places to store my dice.

I hope it snows here in the NE from now until next December. I work for a motorcycle insurance company--whatever keeps dudes from mowing down pedestrians and doing stunts up and down the street is beautiful.
To each his own, TigerDave...no bad feelings intended. Besides, Scotland can only make so much whisky...
I hope you saw, Shadowborn, what most caught my eye about those bags: Customization. Just think: The Dungeon Master's Dice, etc.
I did see that. I think I'd just go with "Never touch another man's dicebag."

In fairness, that was a particularly bad year ... First snowfall was in mid September and the last was 11" on May 1st. I think they usually average about 180" in the Keewenaw each winter.
And they know how to handle it better than here in Detroit; we're getting 6-10" as I type this and things are at (almost) a standstill. 6-10 is a typical snowfall up there.
Behold.Hands Mairkurion a plate of cookies for best linky of the day.
That. is. so. AWESOME!
Gorges himself on cookies because he has no new blog post and pics to go with his morning coffee.
Anyone with surplus snow can pack it up and send it over here! We've got nothing that lasted more than mere hours and I LOVE SNOW! *sniffle*
(not the cold kind of sniffle, just the missing snow kind)
And make sure it's the proper cold stuff, not the kind that just turns to slush 10 minutes after hitting the ground.
