34* here now ... 5-6" snow on Thursday, another 1-2" on Friday.

It changes daily, so who knows what we will eventually get!!

We might not get any snow, just ice!!

Currently 47f above and partly sunny.

Dang. You're gonna see folks from below the Mason Dixon line "snowbirding" to Alaska for the winter.

Here last year at this time it was -28f "BELOW ZERO".
And might be again in two weeks. Hard to know.

I lost mine two winters ago, literally had to crawl in some places to get food and water to the donkey! I ordered new ones, and then found the originals! They are ready for tomorrow!! @elkhound , ice cleats make a huge difference!!

We used to have some too, but they left little dimples in our redwood deck so we quit wearing them. Now we just use salt and sand on the steps.

Update: north Texas has closed schools for tomorrow and will be coming to a complete stand still ()!! That's actually pretty smart, hope people stay home and don't venture out where they don't need to be!! A gal I know who is a doctor always says she wishes those who don't need to get out would stay off the roads so those who actually do have to get out can have a safer drive!! I personally am looking forward to not having to leave the property!! I'll be enjoying eating, sleeping, animal care, and hopefully sled riding!!

We usually get a solid coating of ice everywhere, not snow. I've found them necessary to walk anywhere!!

i am just being super cautious.

if i can gather up enough stamps i am ordering a mail order bride if this ice dont melt soon.
