    Good ole New England will get hit again. We have so much snow that there is no where to put it. When you drive down the street you can't see the cross streets because the snow is piled so high which makes it a little dangerous.

    Yah, we've got the same thing. Just about got creamed this morning. I was making a left hand turn and couldn't see the oncoming traffic, plus that it is snowing like crazy here. Edie

    Yes I live about 45 miles from Kansas City and it is Monday and we are expecting freezing rain and then 8 to 12 inches or depending the area could be 16-18 inches. We don't have the first snow melted yet. Snow shovels are scarce No snow blowers anywhere I heard on the news this morning it could be the worst in 50 years. If we can't get out we can just quilt and that is a good thing

    I know I pulled out in front of someone a few days back. The nose of my car was almost in the middle of the street before I could see anything.

    My son just graduated from college so he is living with us right now trying to find a job. He saw all of the snow and said that if Richmond VA got this much snow the mayor would lock up and comeback sometime in the spring.

    It has started here in our section (NE) of Kansas--no schools in session, the University (which "never" closes) called off classes today. We are in an ice storm right now. Suppose to be followed by a foot of snow tonight and tomorrow with lots of wind. Doesn't sound good I am so thankful I have no need to get out nor any desire to do so.

    From what I hear we're going to get ice (Cincinnati). That's worse than snow.
