Howdy John.  Immediately following the first flake of snow, my wife and daughters had calls from the school that it was cancelled tomorrow.  So far about 3-4 inches in Beebe, AR.  My shop is outside and not too fun to work in in these conditions.

Yep, no school today.  Doesn't look that deep, but still snowing with mid 20F degrees.  Glad I hae that little heater in the shop.  Maybe get the cowl done on the King Sweep.  Good ole channel 5 just showed wind chill of 10.  Thought they said it was going to get cold. LL~

Hi Ty - Here in B'ham we were just south of most snow, but got ice, snow, freezing rain, & just about anything else that could fall from the sky. Same thing on Christmas day. What is interesting is the long range forecast for our area, that I am seeing on Accuweather. The guy who blogs about the Southeast is predicting a major cold wave about next Mon. or Tues, even colder than now, with the possibility of more snow. I cant remember this much persistently cold weather, although it may have happened. Currently, I cant get out of my driveway, & most of the streets are closed, anyway. Timr to get busy in the shop & finish some of those projects.  Regards, Ed

Lets swap situations for a week or two! It took me about an hour to dig out my white toyota[after I found it]only to find out that my appointment at the VA was canceled. 70s is good! ;D

Ty, the picture looks like my neighborhood here in Shawnee KANSAS.  No school yesterday and today.  It is hurting my play money. 

Walter, send your grandson to me and I will let him play in the snow all he wants.  Of course he will have a scoop in his hands.

But, think now people of our friends in Queensland Australia.  A deluge of Tsunami proportions going thru the town.  People being killed and others washed away.  I now keep thinking of how lucky I am to live on high ground.  From the pictures it looks like a lot of flat land and not enough resivours to hold water.  Lets keep them in our prayers.

I just saw that, Doc....I almost went AWOL in Brisbane when as a young man, I had R&R in Sydney....didn't much cotton to Sydney and caught a ride to Brisbane where I met a young lady who lived on a horse ranch sorta outback. Went and stayed all my R&R with them, and almost gave in to the entreatments of her family to stay. I still count them as "family" and have a certain attachment to Australia. You bet I'll pray for them! H^^
