This is our 7 day forcast, from today, Thursday 2-3-11, through Wednesday 2-9-11.



Don't hate!

Brrr....it looks like it's gonna get a chilly at night for us!

Stewart

PS - I put the dates showing those high 70, low 80 degree days with no clouds because the image changes each day with the date. The link is to the current 7 day forcast, not a static picture of the 7 day date I posted.

Almost 2 yrs. before I left NJ, we had a major snow storm and left us with 36" of snow. I recalled Phila. Eagles lost to Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs that day and the snow fell all day. It was Jan. 7, 1996.

Don't miss that snow one bit!

Lovin' this snow! It's my first year with the X and I love it. It's a snow monster. I even got to pull out a Dodge Ram 2500 that got stuck

If you have Limited X as you appear, more than likely you have a LS rear. If my LS stops working, I'll put in a Detroit Truetrac. Nice doughnuts by the way! Did the same thing here is GA a couple of weeks ago. Only got 8" here though.

I like snow. When I was younger and didn't have responsibilities the only place I could be found was on the snowmobile trails.

We got ours earlier, back in december, here in MN, like 18 inches in one day... though I kinda feel left out of this one, we got like 3-4" of snow only.
