12-20" in my area, again. It just snowed 6" last night and about 10-12" last weekend. At this rate, I'm about trade the Subaru up for a Jeep Rubicon with a winch.

It's fun watching Maryland get all this snow. None of these clowns know how to cope with more than an inch of it :)

Don't you get some up on the mountains around Tucson?

Maybe not, I remember walking around old Tucson in a Hawaiian shirt one Xmas.

More fking snow Tuesday and Wednesday on the forecast. Then it gets warm, about 33-36 through the weekend, just enough to make it slushy and miserable for snowboarding. Bullshit!!

I just got back, the neighborhood looks like a long corridor with snow piled 4-5 feet high on either side. Nothing like Denver, I'm sure, but pretty damned annoying.

I used to love this effect between snows; it was pretty common when I was in Connecticut. When it snows again, and you're either forced to narrow the corridor, or heave it up over the walls, it sucks, to be sure. But it's definitely a cool feeling to be driving down hallways of snow, or walking through snow trenches.

Actually, it's pretty common for the higher elevation mountains in the desert areas of Arizona to get snow on them during colder winters with heavier precipitation. But there's a very obvious snow line on them, where there is no snow below the proper altitude. Four Peaks comes to mind for the Valley of the Sun (Phoenix) area.

It's quite possible to be running around in a Hawaiian shirt and shorts in 70 degree weather with snow-capped mountains in the distance around here.

We got about 36 inches at my house, and Maryland is STILL shut down...

12-20 more inches forcast for tonight/tomorrow...I don't care as long as I don't lose electricity for a day and a half again.

Apparently Dallas is about to get some snow. 1-3", mind, but that's still enough to shut down a city that doesn't have the infrastructure in place to deal with it.

Imagine how a city that doesn't have the infrastructure to deal with 6 inches is after getting 24-30 inches then another 12-20 in the next two days is going to do ;)

Well, I'll be fine...I grew up in Vermont, have plenty of food/water stocked, battery powered lights, and thermal underwear. It's everyone else who's going to be screwed ;)

Man, its nuts how hammered you guys in the States are getting with snow this year. Canada is getting jack and squat for snow. Although I'm not sure how the Maritime provinces are faring, haven't looked at their weather lately.

That sounds familiar. Back in the 80s when I was in grad school, a "bad" storm hit the DC area. Everything was shut down, so of course I went in to get some work done. Who was in the building? Me, another guy from Wisconsin, and a woman from Canada. It was hilarious. It was about 4" or snow or something.

The only one that got me while working in DC was the Jan. 1996 one. Snowed over the weekend, the federal govt and Metro shut down thru Wed., I got to go to work one day, then another storm came through that night.

And of course, it was the first winter on my own, and I hadn't bought a shovel yet... (Although the condo we lived at handled plowing.)

Apparently, the Target here didn't stock snow shovels at all this year - because "we didn't get much snow last year." Customers were pretty peeved.
