Yep, its snowing like crazy at the moment. Our first snow this season. I doubt it will last long though.

It's been snowing here for a couple of days now.

The closest we have is some frost and ice on the ground this morning, following last nights storm. While we are fine, much of the town has lost power and isn't expected to get it back until later this afternoon. Tree's have been blown over etc.

We got a huge snow last year, but it was our first one in about six years. Who knows when we'll see it again.

The last time we had snow here was in 2012.

I much prefer having snow on the ground! If it is going to be cold and frozen anyway, it always seems easier to take if the world is blanketed in white. Besides: frozen ground is hard on the horses' feet. Snow improves the footing immensely.

(I grew up in what we call "the near north". Moved south decades ago and still am not happy with brown/green winters.

We had snow yesterday. Then it rained. Then we had brief lightning and thunder. Today it is snowing again.

The ground is almost covered this morning. Lots of grass still showing and the snow will likely be gone soon. It begins, though.

We saw a few flurries a week ago. We rarely see much snow outside January and February.

Like Newt, I think it that if it is going to be freezing anyway, it's easier to take if there's a coat of white on the ground. I just pray it doesn't ever get that cold, though! (Well, maybe once a year.)

The only place I like snow is on a Christmas card. I want to live in Costa Rica!

I like snow. Lots of it. Because when your snowed in your happy to have any visitors. If Mussolini walked in I'd say- "Have a seat! Have a drink!"
In other words- it brings people together-where politics mean nothing.

I saw snow on the ground in MI today on the news.

I was up this morning since 03:00 am and it was snowing like crazy. Took this pic around 08:00 am

I like snow. It makes everything...clean. I love blizzards.
