WOW!!!!! we are going to actually get snow (hopehopehope)
http://www.wunderground.com/US/ID/Moscow.html
Moscow has a heavy snow warning from 4 pm through Tuesday. Drive safe everyone and enjoy the snow! Keep an eye out for elderly neighbors. Make sure outside animals have shelter.
We don't have side walks out where I live, but do be careful on icy walks...hopefully I can get my sweetie to go for a walk with me and the puppy dogs this evening 
Can you tell I love snow?
Wishing you joy in small things and peace in your heart

Annika-
You and I will both be out in it! I have officially marked tomorrow as SLEDDING day for myself and the kids;)I think I might order some taskbars from the farm to keep in the car during snow season- just in case(and my purse, and my kitchen, ....)I really should have a better car emergency kit- maybe I will need some water and chocolate in it as well, all joking aside we really must be prepared to be stranded during the winter here. I just made a beautiful wool blanket (by cutting the edges neatly and washing it!) for the car out of a wool remnant that I got at the Pendleton Outlet in the Gorge for like $3 last summer- and now it is on to gathering extra coats and hats and mittens to keep in the car.
Have a lovely Say, Rebekka

This is wind driven snow on a farm gate
And this is my neighbor's old red barn and Moscow mountain beyond
These are two of my favorite snow pics from this winter and last, I'll see if I can get anything good tomorrow IF it ever snows *grumpy*

Thanks for the pictures girls. They were beautiful and Annika's was very cool. Keep um coming. We, of course, are having wind, wind and more wind to go along with high temps - 79 today. No matter what people say, hot weather does not instill the holiday spirit.
Thanks again and stay safe in your storms. |

It's very windy and we're getting squalls on and off here today. It's lake effect snow--when the winds get up and pass the open water of the Great Lakes they pick up moisture, then dump it on the land to the south and east. We're supposed to get 10-20 cm (4 to 8 inches) today and overnight. Kids are hoping for a snow day tomorrow!

We already had one snow day, a week ago on Nov. 22. Actually, part of them doesn't want one, because tomorrow is a "civies" day at the high school, (they wear uniforms there) and the kids don't want to miss their day when they get to wear "regular" clothes! I'm sure there would be enough outcry the school would reschedule it!
We usually get at least 5 snow days here in a school year. It is most stressful when it happens during January exams (so much confusion!)
The worst one happened last year, when the buses picked up all the kids as usual in the morning, then around 2 p.m. they decided to cancel the afternoon buses, leaving kids stranded in far-away towns in bad weather, forcing hundreds of parents to venture out in bad weather or make some kind of arrangements on the fly. There was a lot of bad press over that one...
Ah, winter in Canada!

Thanks for the beautiful photos! Snow always looks so lovely in photos. But I hope we don't get a lot here in Kentucky this winter. I'd like to just enjoy it in pictures this year! LOL!

Annika-
They are lying to us. If this is what the weather people call heavy snow- then I think we need to send them somewhere where it actually snows a lot! :D I can't believe that the promised snow still hasn't mounted up much. And what did fall today- is melting!!

Oh Ladies, I can relate.
Our weather geeks are wringing their hands in anticipation of our "major" snow storm due here in Minnesota on Saturday. (the sky is falling, the sky is falling....)
If history repeats itself, we won't get a flake at all until after Christmas, like the past few years.
Personally, I hate snow-I have to shovel it-I don't own a snowblower. However, on the plus side, I do get fresh air and exercise. AND it does separate the men from the boys, and keeps the riff-raff out. LOL
My fur baby, Angus, LOVES snow. I have to drag him in shivering, but protesting vehemently.
Don't miss out on a blessing, just because it isn't packaged the way you expected. ~MaryJo Copeland |

How fun for it to feel like Christmas at Christmas!!! I've lived in Cali all my life and somehow 70 degrees does not look like Currier and Ives!!!!

Hey Alee,
Guess what??? the National Weather Service (building) is across the road about 1/10 of a mile from my house, I watch them set off the weather balloons around 4pm each day, except for today, they set them off at 3pm.
My thoughts on the weather are:
If it's white it's snowing
If it's wet, it's raining
If it's blowing, it's windy
and if it's hot, I'm in my garden!!! lol!

Hey Alee,
I can do that, but I'll have to post it on my blog 'cause I can't figure out how to post pictures here...
I just walk outside my front door look to the left & snap away...
But first I have to bundle up real warm,,,hahaha!
Actually the winds blew away alot of our snow so we don't have to shovel the drive way today, DH is happy!
But now I am off to go play,,,,I found yet another apron pattren called a "Fat Quarter Apron", really cute & it's made from fat quarters. So, got my pattern, got my fabric, got my hot tea & now I am off to sew!!!

It's snowing, snowing, snowing here! It was practically blizzarding when I got done with Sunday brunch with some friends around 2:30pm. I think we might have gotten somewhere between 2-3 inches in just a few hours! Winter is here! Yay!!
