Vantage08-- thats bird abuse, you must be closer to NY.

It looks like you have fun winters too.

We should all post some pics of what winter looks like where we all live. I'm kinda interested to see winter across the U.S. is like.

Jan. and feb. would be good months to compare.

Well, it was our first official snow of the year.

----------Pics are under winter 2007-------------
Also there are bad pics of my christmas lights. the camera doesn't pick up good in low lighting situations. it was the first Canon powershot ever made. almost 7 years old now. back when 2 megapixels were out of everyones grasp.

anyway got snow covered pics of the back, side yard and house.
Pics were taken 7:00 am sunday, before it melted

I can't link the pictures from my site to this post because there flash.
I'll putting them on my ftp server also from now on so i can link them
As usual here's the site link.

Freezing rain and brisk winds are what I woke up to this morning.
When I let my dog out to go do her thing, she almost busted her butt on the porch.

Usually we have one or 2 good heavy snows, and several rounds of ice/freezing rain.
Tornadoes aren't so bad, if one becomes educated on safety, and takes a few spotter classes.
Although I generally like the weather here, the humidity in the summer can be pretty suffocating, all in all, it's not that bad.
I remember one time when I was with my dad in Minnesota, the fuel in the tanks of his semi gelled up, had to have a tow to a shop where we spent roughly 3 days while they pumped the tanks, purged lines, injectors, etc. Was an unplanned trip, and didn't get winterized fuel, blah blah.

They dump enough salt on the roads here to preserve mummies, but it causes cancer for Birds and Cats :hick:
Myself...give me the salt on my fries!

It looks like we're just going to skate by with freezing rain/rain (or **ice**), but it's like always--north and west of the city, snow, south and east of the city, mix/rain. In my case I'm southwest along the river, so it's a shoot. The best forecast for me is usually to look at both Philly and Wilmington and split the difference.
