We were under a winter storm warning all day yesterday saying we were going to get up to 10 inches of snow with blizzard like conditions. With me loving snow I was like bring it on. So last night at a friend's it starts to rain ice so we decided to leave and on the way home it looked like we were driving into the twilight zone lol. Well the closer we get the slower the snow gets, ok that's fine. Then we get up and we have a dusting of snow lol. That was are blizzard hahaha..

Sounds like mother nature can't make up her mind But that's good that you didn't get a bad storm like predicted (although it could have been fun for a little while).

We got less snow than predicted when it turned to rain. Now it's all starting to freeze as it gets colder

On the East coast the worst of the storm is still to come. Be careful what you wish for!

Yeah. We had the same here. People still emptied the shelves at the store. No time like these to be in the grocery business, let me tell you. THAT being said, 10 inches back home in Wisconsin would have been just another day.

Yeah same here, I don't see why us people up here freak out so bad when snow is coming in.. we should be used to it. It's like we're in the south.

That is all we will have. So much rain, anything that falls will melt.

It rained all day yesterday and was above freezing, so I'm guessing that the storm broke up and went around us.

You just never know if the hype is going to amount to anything! It is snowing pretty good here right now and tomorrow is suppose to be pretty yucky as well! Then intense below zero wind chills...Blech!
