Went to take a look outside to see how bad it was so far.    The bad stuff is suppose to be overnight.

This is suppose to be one for the record books. We are expected to get 24" plus of snow with winds up to 35mph. Blizzard warning for tonight and tomorrow.
To anyone in it's path; be careful and be prepared.
It's insane out there. I've been through 33 winters in my life, and I've never seen anything like this. Absolutely nuts out there. I know our NWS office was saying that the predicted snowfall rates would likely exceed 100+ year-old records in our area. It's Global Warming.

Just got home, pretty bad out there, but the bad part was dodging gals in pacifica's that think that with AWD they can rule the road. At least I was nice enough to pull one of them out of the ditch, she was pretty embarassed since she tried to pass me in my Silverado Z71 equiped with plow. Nice.

We are now having thunder snow. Don't recall having seen this before. We have had thundersnow twice in the last 4 years. Of course, it is supposed to be 65 here tomorrow compared to the 7 degrees down in Florida.

Rob it didn't get down to 7° here in Florida today or last night, that must have been a glitch in the TV station's computer animation ... it probably missed a 5 or 6 in front of the 7 and the color probably automatically corresponded with the appropriate color for the posted temp (7°). That's my guess anyway. Gainsville (map area) reported a low of 61° and a high of 74° for today.
