Views from my apartment about 1 hour ago. We've gotten about 3" to 4". It's slowing down now.







hmmmm. Not showing up. Need to try to figure this out.

Here in Flagstaff,AZ are 7,000ft in town. Phoenix is nearly sea level and a few hours drive. We get to deal with desert dwellers trying to drive on ice packed roads. It's bad enough with some of the locals, but when in-experience meets rubber necking it's out right dangerous to be on the road at all.

I lived in Chattanooga, Tennessee for a year and then in Rome, Georgia for a year. I was astounded that, when the first snowflakes fell, everyone headed for the exits and went home, cowering there until the snow was gone.

The first winter there was an actual blizzard in Chattanooga. While felt comfortable driving, I was terrified of the other drivers who weren't used to the snow. So I got out my cross country skis and skied to a dinner party. A 4-wheel drive passed me on the road and all the occupants were leaning out the windows and cheering me on.

We live in fear of snowless winters up here....especially since we've got 7 or 8 hundred antsy sled dogs on their way to town for the weekend.

Hey Kevin

What with climate change proving to have a sense of humour, maybe someone should invest in some sledge wheels for the year when the snow never comes.

Just to really cheer me up our weather has been rain, rain and then rain, with lots more forecast for tomorrow and a minimum temperature on the positive side, but not very positive.

Sigh.
