Annie,  here in central Ma. we are going to be hit by the snow storm also.  Sounds like we could get a foot of snow.  I am hoping my company makes it or we shall be eating left overs through out the weekend.  On the flip side I could have nine people unexpectedly staying over.  

Have a very Merry!

Yikes, Annie!  That snow sounds pretty intimidating.  Do take care of yourself and keep warm.  Have a merry Christmas too! :)

I'm not sure, but I think I'd rather be getting the snow forecast for you all in the New England and upstate New York interior, than the wild rain and wind we're supposed to get here on the coastline.

 We only have to drive 30 miles to and from relatives both this evening and tomorrow......and a 4-wheel drive is a great tool in the snow but pretty darned useless in a flood! :-[

A Very Safe and Merry Holiday to you all!! ;)

Wow, sounds like the East Coast is gonna get hit hard. El Nino has caused the weather here in the Mid-West to be pretty mild. Temps are expected to even reach the 50's next week. No chance of snow today or tomorrow
:(  I was hoping for a sprinkling for some Christmas effect.

Have a Merry Christmas all.  Bob

    Here in Maine, we never get snow.  I am wearing my seasonal sleevless polyester dresses but always keep a fire in my fireplace, just in case.  Of course, I'm just kidding.  We expect a white christmas here, too.  Unfortunately, my 7 year old came down with an intestinal bug and has been very sick since Saturday night.  He just asked me tearfully if Santa won't come to our house because he is sick.  I reassured him Santa will come no matter what.
  Everyone stay healthy and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!(felt like shouting).

Weatherman just said that we can expect anywhere from 12-24 inches of snow tomorrow! This is in upstate NY  near Albany.  It's gonna be a nor'easter!

OOPS, guess I spoke to soon. It started coming down here a couple hours ago and we have a good two inches on the ground. It made for an interesting car ride home from my sisters tonight. :) Those darn weathermen. You'd think with all that modern technology they have they could predict a bit better.  ;D I got my scenic snow and then some. I'll be working off Christmas Eve dinner shovelling the driveway in the a.m.!  :D

Well, looks like all you guys up north are sure gonna get it.  We're getting some sort of mix in NJ.  It's around 3 am and there's about an inch on the ground.
I saw a present under the tree that says "To Sweetie Pie, From Santa Baby."  I think it's for me.  (Unless my husband has some broad stashed away around here that I don't know about).  LOL

Merry Christmas!  [wavey]

Well, here in Yonkers,N.Y. we still don't know what the heck we're suppose to get!  Yesterday they predicted a foot of snow for Christmas, then later this evening it changed to "just a dusting" now we're back up to a foot again!  oy vey, I wish they'd get something right for a change.  I swear sometimes it better to be your own weather person!

Here on Long Island, it's snowing at nearly 7 AM, but it isn't sticking to anything but the grass.  We're supposed to get a miscture of snow, sleet, rain and locusts (LOL!), with predictions right now of 2-4 inches of snow.  

Driving in snow is NOT one of my favorite chores, and I do have to report to work tomorrow, one of the few who is expected to appear.

My bad back doesn't appreciate snow shoveling, so I'm hoping we get just a little snow and there's no need for it.

Anyway, whether you're expecting no snow at all or a deluge of the stuff, I wish you a Merry Christmas.  If you're driving in bad weather, please be careful--DARK SHADOWS fandom needs every one of us!

Love, Robin
