Winter Whimper

So hold onto your hats and check out the worst storm of the season!


Neighbouring cities forewarned that vehicles would be towed
(if left on the street overnight).
Radios announced the coming of the storm
and local Twitter streams 
were burning up 
in anticipation
of Armeggedon


Umm, yeah
I think there was more snow on the ground yesterday
before the storm hit.
It's raining at present
and I am okay with that.

Have a toasty weekend folks!

    1. @G-Man: With March rolling in at the end of the week, I think that this winter is a bit of a bust. Good riddance I guess. Hope your weekend rocked G!

  4. Oh WOW....and I was so hoping to see a HUGE snowfall from the way you had described the radio warnings.

    But I gotta tell ya, Katherine, it's been the same way here. We get threats of snow storms and ZIP....NADA!

    Anyway, my friend....enjoy a wonderful weekend!

    1. @Ron: Yup, I have had more white stuff on the back of the couch from the presence of sleeping kitties. Certainly wasn't an opportunity for making snow angels, let alone a new man or two! Oh well, better luck next winter, right Ron! ;)

    1. @Me: Obviously went into the wrong profession, if weather forecaster can make money with accuracy rates like that!

  6. Too funny! They cancelled school buses, cancelled my son's drive test, people were taking snow days... and we got about as much as you did!

  7. Yeah, there was all this talk of a snowstorm here too...6-7 inches which really isn't much compared to what we used to get. But all we got was a paltry two and it'll be melted by tomorrow with fifty degress in the forecast.

    1. @Yvonne: I don't think you are that far from me Yvonne, so I suspect we have both been wondering when winter is going to start. The cities have saved tonnes on snow plowing costs, but you know, I don't mind to look out at a pristine, fresh, white blanket of snow that carpets the world. Spring time just might have arrived though!
