Well I went back outside and we maybe got another half an inch of snow. Nothing impressive. So Lee wins :p
The snow has stopped a little but the ice is really coming down it almost looks like rain. They are saying people should stay off the roads. Earlier a truck hit the bridge on interstate 69 right behind our house.
The news said Valley Park, which is about 4 miles from me got 11 inches of the wintery mix. Hillsboro about 45 minutes away got 14 inches:eek:
The wife and I got some pictures of Drew's GTP burried in the snow. After shovelling the driveway, I'm to tired to go to the lower level and pull the pictures off of the camera right now.:th_depressed:
Oh I hear ya there Lee. When I shoveled my whole driveway I was whipped pretty good. The snow was super heavy on the bottom end cause it was melting due to the temps we had the past couple of days. And then additional 5-6 inches ontop of the slush really made it fun :)
This kind of weather makes me want to find a 6 month job on a cruise line during the winter and then work for 6 months here during the summer :p
Do what I did and move south. I grew up and lived in Buffalo most my life. I dont miss the white stuff except on Christmas day LOLQuote:

While I can appreciate that. There is just no way I would live in FL. Hanging down at Miami's International Airport and the Days off the Airport made me realize I am safer in St. Louis :DQuote:

Thank you Lori!!!!! We ended up with 7 inches of snow, and they are calling for more tonight not much though.
You trumped James' snow amount:th_thumbsup-wink: It was near 50* today so a lot has melted already.Quote:

At least it almost got to 45 degrees today and melted a good bit of snow.
