We haven't had any real snow to speak of. So much for CO being a place for winter sports!

They are estimating a foot of snow and high winds. Everything will be shut down. I am so sick of winter already and it's only early January. We have a long way to go. Ugh!

Cities would shut down when dusted with snow. They could handle hurricanes better than ice and snow. Try to get warm!

Just northeast of Tallahassee. While it will be clear tonight, it will be MUCH colder - down to 25 F. I'm not going outside until at least Monday when it will be in the 60s.
