How much......

...snow did everyone get? Around here it was barely enough to cover the ground, and oddly enough to make it slick and remind me that there isn't a whole lot of tread left on my tires!! I love the fact that in every snow we get I don't need 4 wheel drive til I get to town.

I live in Elkhorn, just outside of Omaha. We didn't get to much, maybe a 3/4 of an inch or so. I am sooo ready for summer!

We got an inch or so in SW Omaha... just enough to make the side streets slick for the commute last night. The wind downtown around the high-rises has blown the snow into drifts here and there.

Probably a couple off inches at most. Just mainly cold weather. But it feels much better today.

We were supposed to get 5-9 inches in the Northeast but we only got about 2.5 nches and no major drifts. I was all bummed out especially after getting the plow ready on my 99. I didnt even need it for my driveway.

We end up getting a some freezing rain and little bit of snow here is Omaha. My girlfriend goes to work really early and the freezing rain really messed up the morning commute.

She can not drive very well in the snow so I take her to work when snow falls on the ground. Luckily she called in to work so she didnt have to show up. When the news came on later that day there was a unreal amount of car crashes that morning. So that saved my fenders on my truck that morning.

I bought the wife an Expedition four years ago for this very reason. Her Oldsmobile was terrible in the snow. She loves it!
